Western financier. Rod Slater (Roger Moore), un manager général d'une mine d'or en Afrique du Sud, doit percer un barrage souterrain pour y trouver une réserve importante d'or à la demande de son patron Steyner. En même temps, il tombe amoureux de la femme de Steyner (Susannah York). Mais il devra mettre à jour une terrible conspiration…En effet, Steyner, avec d'autres investisseurs, monte une opération à Londres, qui consiste à provoquer un accident par inondation, provoquer une chute très forte du cours de bourse mais provoquer ensuite une forte hausse du cours de cette entreprise minière quand les dégâts auront été réparés et parce qu'elle détient de grandes réserves de minerai d'or, ce qui permettrait aux conspirateurs de réaliser une substantielle plus-value. Un des conspirateurs ne peut pas résister à se débarrasser d'une partie de ses actions avant l'accident est assassiné. Styner, conscient de l'attirance de sa femme pour Slater, les laisse partir tous les deux en week-end, pendant lequel l'inondation doit intervenir. L'opération échoue car Slater peut rentrer à temps et limiter les dégâts dus à la catastrophe. Steyner est alors assassiné par son complice quand celui-ci comprend l'échec du complot et son assassin et complice se tue accidentellement. La femme de Slater lui déclare alors son amour, après que celui-si a sauvé la mine de la catastrophe.
