In Lisbon, American pilot Brad Webster has been shut out of work ever since he crashed a plane four months ago, with his associated personal life negatively affected by his dwindling financial resources. Despite the odd nature of the way the request got to him - via a letter on lawyer Villeneuve, killed in a car accident, that letter which got into the possession of Police Commandant Commaro who further passed it along to its intended recipient - Brad accepts the one-way ticket to start a job as a pilot working for Colonel Fernando Valdez in one of his many businesses in Mozambique, a Portuguese territory in East Africa. Upon his arrival in Mozambique, Brad discovers about the recent demise of Valdez, the operations having been taken over by his associate, Da Silva, who has since joined forces with who was Valdez's competitor, David Henderson, in whatever the nature of the business in which Brad will be involved. Da Silva's leadership does not sit well with Valdez's widow, Ilona Valdez, who is in search of a missing briefcase containing the information that will restore the financial power rightfully hers as her husband's heir. Beyond the job itself not being what he wants, Brad helps a young woman, Christina Sindstrom, a singer at one of Valdez's nightclubs, who too got a similar one-way ticket to Mozambique arriving only to discover that the job included "being friendly" to business associates which she was not prepared to do, and as such is trying to find a way out of Mozambique which is not as easy as the entry into. Brad and Christina's missions to get out of Mozambique for good become more complicated when they are involved in a murder.
