A daring escape leads him and his fiancee Katie on a breathless chase to the university town of St. Andrews, where the Germans have established a secret research laboratory. When it becomes clear what its purpose is, David, Katie, and their small, trusted band must adopt a desperate and audacious plan to thwart Nazi domination....
