Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

In this melodramatic adventure, a young woman is abducted by Chinese bandits. One of them is a free-lance pilot in need of quick money. He immediately falls for the hostage and jilts his own girl friend. He begins protecting the victim from her lust-filled captors. The two end up married. Years pass and after the pilot meets demise in a plane crash, the woman finally escapes and heads back to London where she marries a renowned heart surgeon and begins leading a luxurious life. Unfortunately, the pilot didn't die and suddenly reappears. He is still in love with her. The woman loves her new husband, but doesn't want to be a bigamist. She faces a difficult decision. Meanwhile, the old girl friend, who still loves her old lover, resurfaces and tries to blackmail the hapless wife. The pilot puts a stop to that by poisoning the old girl friend. Unfortunately, his wife gets accused of the crime. In the end, the pilot confesses his crime and leaves her for good.
