John Drake steps into a murder trap set for him by a beautiful double agent in the Caribbean and is accused of the killing she commits. Revolution is brewing in the British-ruled Caribbean colony yet, oddly enough, it is to protect the would-be new leader, the idealistic Dr. Shargis (PAUL CURRAN), that John Drake (PATRICK McGOOHAN) is sent there. The British Government feels that his death would unleash undesirable forces. Alive, he would lose the forthcoming election as quietly as usual. But his death would be a very different story. Assassination of a popular nationalist candidate would have the terrorists pouring in. The British would be held responsible. The country would go wild. He would be a martyr, and popular sympathy would hand his party the election. People in his own party therefore want him dead. But who?
