Since the death of her sweetheart a year ago, she pushes aside thoughts of marriage. However, she's intrigued by a fellow passenger who tells the most interesting stories. Desperate for a fresh start, a young thief takes the name Hans Hoffmann when a look-alike passenger dies during the trans-Atlantic passage. Vowing to be an honest man in America, Hans discovers temptation wears many disguises. Will the pair be rewarded as they attempt their new dreams in a strange land?
