Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
In this drama, a deliciously nasty villain endeavors to steal a successful shipping firm from an honest man. To get the company and gather information, the villain employs a talented mimic who begins dating the daughter of the company president. He succeeds and causes the president to take his own life to save his company. Later the villain tries to kill the mimic, but fortunately, the mimic survives, goes to the police, gets the crook arrested, and proves himself worthy of his lady's love.
