A romance with thriller elements, typical of stage melodramas.

Phyllis Weston, a wealthy, high-society girl, is being simultaneously courted by affable Jack Stacey and villainous Robson. Robson attempts to rid himself of his rival by, first, sabotaging his boat during a yacht race and, second, convincing his sister to trap Jack in a compromising situation. Both attempts fail.

'The story, briefly, deals with a country girl, who, through force of circumstances, becomes an artist's' model in the city. Later, in the country, she meets a Digger, who is fighting his battle of place on the land. They fall in Iove and there are 'thrillers' when the villain–a friend of the artist's–still pursues her.'
