Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

In this war drama, set during WW I in France, a wife and her husband, an army lieutenant attempt to stay together. To do so, the wife begins pretending to be her husband's buddy. Trouble ensues when her husband's colonel falls in love with her. She is eventually accused of being an enemy agent until her husband finally tells the truth. Unfortunately this gets him into trouble. Fortunately, like a summer storm, the trouble passes and the couple gets a furlough in Paris.
