Dora March's does not like to talk about her background, but she soon settles into Port Alma, winning friends and admirers, particularly the brothers Cal and Billy Chase. Yet within a year she flees the town on the same bus she arrived on, leaving Billy dead, and Cal in pursuit of the woman who has apparently killed his brother.
