Synopsis
When Secret Service agent James Kestner gets caught by Frank Lambert's gang of counterfeiters, whom he has been trailing, Frank's daughter Maura, impressed by James's bravery, convinces her father to let him go. James later kills gang member Tony Morello for trying to rape Maura, but before he dies, Tony tells her that she is not really Frank's daughter but had been kidnapped by him when she was a baby. As a result, Maura realizes that her profession was not biologically determined. Instead, she had been trained to be a criminal. James finally arrests Frank, but instead of handing Maura over to the police, he keeps her for himself, as the couple makes plans to get married.
