It stars Betty Compson and Tom Moore in a story about "love and thrills beneath the northern lights".

[2][3] As described in a film magazine,[4] Jen Galbraith (Compson), the daughter of a bootlegger on the Canadian border, and Sgt.

Tom Flaherty (Moore) of the North-West Mounted Police are in love, and the young woman often begs him to give up his job as a policeman.

While Jen is riding home through the snow one night she is mistaken for a spy of the moonshiners and is shot at by the police.

The police follow a trail that leads to her home with Tom arriving at the bootleggers camp at about the same time and seeking to divert suspicion from his girl.
