The story shifts to the Riviera, where Judex and Jacqueline grow closer as Diana and Moralès continue scheming around Favraux.

When an unscrupulous banker ruins his family, a young man swears to bring him to justice, so he adopts a new identity, the mysterious Judex, and ominously disguised and sunk into the muddy path of vengeance, punishes the crooks and protects the innocents. (Originally a twelve-part epic serial.)

Judex is taken aboard Diana’s ship, escapes with outside help, and the tables turn against his enemies.

The story resolves with forgiveness, reunions, and the engagement of Jacques and Jacqueline, while Diana meets a tragic end.
