Larry O'Neil, a ship's cook, finds and befriends stowaway Lois Austin, who is a fugitive from a murder charge. The ship's captain, Klodel, also finds her and forces her to do his will as he has received a cablegram and knows she is hunted. A storm breaks and Larry rescues Lois from the captain and he, in turn, is rescued by Lois as the ship seems to be sinking. The two make an island beach and are befriended by the island traders, but the ship has remained afloat - and Captain Krodel comes ashore looking for them.—Les Adams <[email protected]>
