Isabel Jeans plays a woman with easy virtue which is explained in the beginning of the film. Jeans is perfectly cast as Larita Filton, a British divorcée. The film begins with divorce proceedings. The press and the judicial system have harshly judged the beautiful woman who testifies and defends her honor but fails to do in the courts and the public. She escapes to the South of France where she meets and falls in love with John. She doesn't tell him about her past. Isabel Jeans would have won awards for her performance. This film is an early indication of Hitchcock's vision and genius about film making process as well.
