A Ruritanian romance.
According to a contemporary review in the Register,
'Mr. Shirley takes the principal role of Paul Craig in this dramatic story of anarchy, love, intrigue, and adventure. A tense scene is that enacted in the mysterious house of shadows, where a blind man, losing his way, gets into a strange room, just as a murder is committed. The tense atmosphere tells him that something abnormal is taking place, and then he accidentally comes into contact with a fallen man. Paul Craig's life is spared by the secret conspirators because he is unable to identify them. Later on, this former aviator and distinguished scientist, regains his sight, and falls in love with beautiful Angela Scardon (Grace Glover). But Angela is the ward of Carlo Gelmini (George Bryant), who, by the long arm of coincidence, was a prime mover in the murder. Many exciting happenings follow, until the hero wins deserved happiness.'
