Rather unconvincing
by deickemeyer2018-01-13

"A story of intrigue in high government circles, with a touch of melodrama running through it which renders the whole rather unconvincing. The yarn is entertaining, however. E.H. Calvert appears as a man of dual personality. He is in love with the daughter of the secretary of war, and at the same time is trying to steal plans for a criminal organization. The girl, portrayed by Irene Warfield, succeeds in outwitting and unmasking him. The photography is clear and pleasing. - The Moving Picture World, November 29, 1913..."
