Plot

As described in a film magazine review,[2] John Briggs, who was seen service during World War I during the Bolshevik Revolution, returns to England. Discouraged by his failure to be a success in literature, he uses as source material for his stories the tales in a diary he found on a dead Russian soldier. Published using the name Alexis Triona, it becomes a hit. He weds Olivia Gale, and subsequently reveals his deception to her. Repulsed by Olivia after he meets her after driving his automobile, he deliberately swings the vehicle over a cliff. She goes to his aid. He recovers and they are reconciled.
