The marriage ceremony is performed at Sir Daniel's deathbed, and at its conclusion, all present receive a shock when a former mistress of Mortimer's confronts them. Joanne, horrified at the woman's story, refuses to live with her husband and runs away to America. There she receives news of her husband's death while hunting in the wilds of British Columbia, and her relief is great. But two years later she hears that her husband is alive, and the old fear returns. Determined to prove for herself the truth, Joanne leaves for the railroad construction camp high up in the mountains of British Columbia. She is maliciously directed to Bill Quade's place, thus falling into the clutches of the worst men in the camp. He conceives a violent love for Joanne and tries to force his caresses upon her, but is prevented by John Aldrous, a young novelist and explorer and his companion, Donald McDonald, typical old mountaineer. Bill swears he will have the girl, and John places her under the protection of his friends, Paul Blackton and his wife. She and Aldrous fall in love, but her former marriage is a barrier to their happiness. While watching blasting operations Joanne and Aldrous wander into the cavern which is to act as the air chamber for the explosion of several tons of dynamite and are trapped there by a landslide. Expecting death momentarily, they are saved by the fact that the exploding wires were broken by the landslide and they are rescued. Meanwhile, Quade and his gang have been on the trail of Aldrous and Joanne, and after some exciting adventures, one of the crooks turns out to be Joanne's first husband. In a struggle with John he is killed, freeing Joanne forever and when John has recovered from his experience, he and Joanne are reunited in permanent happiness and love.
