On the Shanghai Express, a group of passengers are more worried about the notorious Shanghai Lily being on board than the looming threat of a civil war that may extend their journey to over three days. A British Army doctor, Donald Harvey, knows Lily from her past as a "coaster," a woman who survives by her cunning along the China coast. When Chinese rebels halt the train, Dr. Harvey is chosen as a hostage. Lily rescues him, but can she convince him that she remains the same woman he loved five years prior?
