For a year they are happy together and then Martin suddenly disappears. He has been struck by lightning and becomes a victim of asphasia. With memory of his identity completely obliterated, he, strangely enough, takes up his same line of work. As Thomas Harding he becomes a famous detective. His wife lives on in darkness concerning the mystery of her husband's disappearance. Grace, her daughter, grows to womanhood and is to marry Carol Johnson. Francois Maudont, a French adventurer posing under the name of Cuthbert, fascinates her and possesses a hypnotic power over the girl which puzzles her mother. She appeals to a detective agency and Thomas Harding is assigned to the case. The shock of meeting with the familiar surroundings of the past brings back his memory and John Martin and his wife begin life where they left off years before.
