Race attaches a line and hauls it ashore. A policeman arrives and the affair is recorded as murder or suicide. Hauling the car to the police station, Race learns there of another car which was found on a country road and which is similar to the one he has hauled from the surf. Christopher thinks nothing further of the matter till the next day, when a representative of a newspaper calls on him offering him inducements to clear up the mystery for his paper. Race accepts and starts his investigations. He takes it for granted that the discovered cars are the same, and he traces its course from the road to the beach. He finds traces of a mysterious man, John Brown, and also of a young girl who is also looking for John Brown. Christopher meets the latter while at a meal. The man makes a dash and gets away in an auto. Race follows him to London, notifies the police, and awaits developments. The girl calls upon him. She is quickly followed by John Brown himself. The entire affair is cleared up as evolving from a love spat between the two, wherein brown faked an accident with his car, thereby bringing the girl back to him. Christopher gives up detective work as a bad job. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
