Kitty Fane is lovely but shallow, and when her bacteriologist husband discovers her adulterous affair, he forces her to accompany him to the heart of a cholera epidemic (in China), hoping that she will die. Bitterly unhappy and resentful, Kitty is compelled both by the desolation around her and by her awakening conscience to re-assess her life, past and present. Slowly and painfully she learns how to love; tragically, she learns too late.
