Storyline
Plot Summary |
To secretly replenish the family's failing fortunes, Virginia Griswold secures a position in the Secret Service to apprehend a group of counterfeiters and gain the reward money. Virginia infiltrates Newport society and discovers that Mrs. Palmer, wife of a wealthy resident, is involved with Vincent Cortez, a foreign adventurer. Cortez gives Mrs. Palmer counterfeit bills which Virginia removes from a safe while being watched by Stuart Kent, who is in love with her. Later Kent becomes angry when he sees Cortez embrace Virginia. She leads detectives to a yacht used as headquarters by the counterfeiters. The gang is arrested and she gains the reward. Colonel Harrington, a close friend of the family, explains the situation to Kent, and the couple is reunited. Written by Pamela Short |
