While eavesdropping on a meeting of Northern spies, she is captured and forced to wed a masked man who bears a peculiar tattoo on his wrist. Jeanne escapes and soon afterwards, continues her work in Washington, D.C. with the aid of Henry Morgan, who, unknown to Jeanne, is a Northern agent. In Washington, she unwillingly falls in love with John Armitage, a Northerner. In procuring a set of important documents, Jeanne's identity is discovered, and she is forced to escape to Richmond. Morgan, who is revealed as Jeanne's mysterious husband, is killed in a struggle with "Parson" John Kennedy.
