Summary
At Oslo in 1945, a French doctor, Guilbert, is abducted by a group of
Nazis and taken aboard their submarine. The Germans plan to evade
capture by the Allies by steering a course for South America.
Guilbert finds himself in the company of several unsavoury fugitives,
including a Gestapo chief, a German general, an Italian industrialist
and a French journalist who collaborated with the Nazis. When
news of the armistice is received, mutiny breaks out aboard the
submarine...
