Il était une fois

Anna Holm est maître-chanteur qui, à cause d'une cicatrice défigurant son visage, méprise tous ceux qui croisent son chemin. Quand un chirurgien esthétique lui rend un visage normal, Anna devient tiraillée entre l'espoir de pouvoir commencer une nouvelle vie et les tentations des obscurités de sa vie passée. Elle devient alors gouvernante d'un enfant et finit par tuer un homme qui cherchait à l'assassiner.
