The nuclear physicist Professor Klaus von Herrmann discovered a novel nerve gas in his research and immediately stopped all his research. However, terrorists have already heard of this discovery and are now doing everything to get to the deadly formula. When the professor comes to Miami to deliver the formula to the CIA, his daughter Hella orders private detective Jack Costello to pick up the professor at the port and escort him safely to the hotel. In front of the hotel, however, the professor is shot dead by the terrorists. Jack hurries to help the dying scientist, but he can do nothing for him. The professor, however, succeeds in letting the deadly formula disappear into Jack's shirt pocket with the last of his strength. Now Jack has the formula, but knows nothing about it. So he and Dumas are quickly targeted by the terrorists and also the CIA, while the terrorists are already planning a poison gas attack on a charity bazaar.
