Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

A lumber camp provides the setting for this romantic drama that chronicles the love between a nightclub singer, her new husband, a lumberjack, and her old flame, who also happens to be working in the same camp. When the singer spies her former love, the affair is rekindled. Unfortunately, neither wants to hurt her gentle new husband. When he spies them embracing, he gets angry and sets them on a runaway train. Fortunately, he reconsiders his actions before it is too late and unhitches their car before the train hurtles off a steep cliff into a deep gorge.
