Synopsis

Capt. Alaric Lewin and his bride, Chum, are sent to Key Island, off the coast of Africa, where he has been commissioned as assistant to Gregory of the British Service. Chum determines to vamp the commissioner and thereby win a better post for her husband, and her husband finds favor in the eyes of Diana Churton, whose husband is away on an expedition. Instead of carrying out orders to send Lewin to Malta, Gregory puts him in charge of a dangerous jungle expedition; but Chum, learning of his treachery, forces him at gunpoint to organize a search party. Alaric is found delirious from fever, the party is attacked by natives, and Gregory is killed. Alaric, reunited with his wife, is given his orders to Malta.
