Dreka Langley leaves her Malay Peninsula home after her alcoholic husband shoots himself. On the way to join her brother in China, she stops, gives birth to a baby, and leaves him with a Chinese family. Dreka meets John Dangerfield and persuades him to leave his wife and daughter. They sink into the depths of the Chinese underworld until Dangerfield, deserted by Dreka, regains his health and former position. He unwittingly adopts Dreka's child, Frank, and sends him to school in California. There Frank meets and falls in love with Dangerfield's daughter, Shirley, but, believing he is Chinese, he returns to China. He finds his mother, who tells him he is Caucasian before she dies from a bullet wound intended for him. Dangerfield returns to his forgiving wife, and Frank marries Shirley.
