Everard Dominey, a ruined English baronet, stumbles half-dead out of the East African scrub into the camp of a German officer who looks exactly like him. One of the two men returns to England as Sir Everard, to a haunted family estate, a wife who fears him and a German agent named Seaman who never leaves his side.
