The Net of Deceit Filming Locations

Unable to purchase the formula of the explosive about to be sold to the government by Mallott, the representative of a foreign power orders Le Farge and Gabrielle to obtain it. Gabrielle, posing as Le Farge's sister, easily fascinates Fanshell, Mallott's secretary. The adventuress also meets David, a fisherman, and engages him in a violent flirtation. Madly in love with the woman, David is stunned when she mockingly spurns his offer of marriage. Tests have demonstrated the power of the new explosive, Gabrielle renews her efforts to obtain the formula. In the meantime, David, rendered almost insane by what has occurred, determines to kill Gabrielle. Climbing up the balcony, he peers into her room and sees Fanshell giving the siren the formula. Bursting into the room, David snatches the paper and restores it to Fanshell. Le Farge appears upon the scene and endeavors to interfere, but Fanshell, his eyes opened, makes his escape. After knocking Le Farge senseless, David tries to kill the enchantress, but his hand refuses to drive the knife home. On her return to the city, Gabrielle finds her thoughts reverting to David. Then comes the discovery of her love for him. Although a review of her life brings the realization of her unworthiness, she resolves to seek David and beg his forgiveness. The fisherman, heart-broken and unable to forget Gabrielle, suddenly finds her standing before him. Although he at first spurns her, David finally comes to the realization that Gabrielle loves him, and takes her in his arms.
