Synopsis
Plenty of adventure in the desert, with "villains dashing madly across deserts with the lives of both the hero and the heroine at stake, ... long underground avenues, trick doors, trap doors and many ways of the unwily villuns to torture the innocent. ... Allene Ray plays the daughter of a Mohammedan desert merchant, and the discovery that she is really French furthers her romance with the hero. Also featured are archeological diggings and rescue by the British Army." ( Variety , 20 Aug 1924, p22.)
