The narrative primarily revolves around Constance Dunlap, a woman caught in a tumultuous and morally ambiguous world of crime as she and her husband, Carlton, navigate the dark consequences of his embezzlement and their subsequent partnership in forgery. At the start of the story, Carlton Dunlap is seen returning home with a fearful demeanor, hinting at his troubled conscience. He confesses to Constance that he has engaged in embezzlement and intends to flee to escape the repercussions. Constance, initially distraught, quickly shifts from shock to resolve as she proposes ideas for forgery to help their situation.
