About Wild Olive

Norrie Ford, having been unfairly convicted of murder, has escaped. A lucky chance finds him being rescued by a mysterious girl (the Wild Olive of the title), who sets him up with a new life under a new name in Argentina.

Back in New York, he meets up again with the Wild Olive . . . (Summary by Simon Evers)
