Steve Austin is gravely injured by a depth charge while fleeing from a failed mission in Egypt. He refuses further cooperation with OSI, which will not disclose to him the target of the operation that nearly cost him his life. OSI conspires with an old Air Force acquaintance to dupe Austin into “escaping” from his involuntary confinement to Paradise Cay in the Bahamas. There he is unwittingly thrust back into the same operation that intends to stop an arms dealer named Findletter from selling stolen American and Russian nuclear missiles. The stakes are increased when Findletter attempts to hijack a newly launched American submarine.
