Andrews stars as an American insurance investigator looking into the mysterious death of diamond broker Farrar, whose life was insured for $1 million. Farrar had reportedly drowned while diving for diamonds off the African coast. Andrews follows the dead man's fiancee, Crain, on a
dangerous safari until he discovers Farrar is very much alive. The scheme was conceived by Farrar to raise money to proceed with underwater mining for diamonds. Soon the crook and the agent are off on a canoe chase which ends with the capture of Farrar. An implausible story and weak performances
drag down this film. Shot on location in Rhodesia.
