A daring mission unfolds as a resourceful newspaperman masterminds a plan to smuggle rubber out from under Japanese occupation, enlisting the help of a former prisoner.

Journalist John Royer returns to the US after years abroad, just as the country enters World War II. He boasts of smuggling rubber from Malaya, a key wartime resource, and is tasked with doing so. With help from a past acquaintance, Carnaghan, released from Alcatraz, they pose as Irishmen and head to Southeast Asia.
