The swashbuckling story concerns England's King Charles II in the year 1660, when he was in exile in Holland from his political enemies, Oliver Cromwell’s fanatical followers. While there he falls in love with a Dutch farm girl, Miss Croset, although he spends a good deal of his time with a former sweetheart from France; portrayed by Miss Montez.
