Breathless Amory watched as Ted's plane started on the first lap of the hard trip across Alaska to Siberia. In Amory's hand were clutched his aviator's silver wings and the thought of them gave her courage in the trying days that followed as Mrs. Whitney's social secretary among that sophisticated crowd. It was a life which Amory could not understand -- empty, soulless, typified by the beautiful Diana, in search of a new thrill, heartlessly planning to fascinate the unwanted minister-nephew. But the big, young minister surprisingly turned the tables on Diana; and his presence encouraged Amory in the dark days when Ted's plane was lost among the Arctic snows until new hope came to her most unexpectedly.
