Gregory Thorne is engaged to Marta Milbanke. Both of their fathers are wealthy ship owners. Marta's father receives an anonymous letter which warns of disaster if a shipload of supplies for the Allies leaves the docks. Gregory sees an opportunity for adventure and tells Mr. Marta's father that he knows who wrote the letter, but won't say who it is. He suspects Count Eckstrom and confronts him. Gregory is forced to end his engagement to Marta, but opts for more adventure by planning to kidnap her. Unknown to Gregory, Eckstrom also plans to kidnap Marta. The two men and their cohorts clash. Marta is kidnapped by Eckstrom's men. Gregory is also caught and held as hostage. Gregory must now outwit Eckstrom's men, save Marta, and rescue her father's business.
