According to Their Lights

In the depths of New York City, two fallen men from different worlds find themselves united by desperation. A disgraced police captain and a disinherited young gentleman, both reduced to poverty, face the ultimate test of character when temptation offers a way out through betrayal.

In this masterful tale by the legendary O. Henry, discover how each man acts "according to their lights" - their own moral compass - when honor and survival collide on the unforgiving streets of early 1900s Manhattan.

A timeless story of friendship, loyalty, and the choices that define us when we have nothing left to lose.
