This film brings part of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's story, The Exploits of Brigadier Gerard, to the silent screen. Gerard (stage actor Lewis Waller) and his lady love, the Countess de Rocquelaure (Madge Titheradge), have been employed by Emperor Napoleon (A.E. George) to steal some valuable papers from Tallyrand. But the ruler of Paris is a tricky character, and the pair undergo a number of sticky situations before completing their mission. ~ Janiss Garza, Rovi
