Thomas Babington "Babe" Levy is a history student and distance runner who seeks to rehabilitate the memory of his father, who took his own life during McCarthyism. A fiery car accident kills Klaus Szell, the brother of Nazi war criminal Christian Szell. Babe's brother Henry ("Doc"), who Babe believes is an oil company executive, is actually a government agent operating for a secret agency headed by Peter Janeway. Doc is a courier for the transport of diamonds owned by Szell and kept in a safe deposit box in New York City. When Doc takes Babe and his Swiss girlfriend Elsa Opel to lunch, he tricks Elsa into revealing that she is actually German and has been lying about her background.
Although Doc suspects she may be connected to Szell, he tells Babe that she is seeking an American husband so she can become a U.S. citizen. Szell, having learned of his brother's death, secretly arrives in New York to collect the diamonds, and the couriers are mysteriously killed. Doc escapes a couple of attacks, but when he and Szell ultimately meet, he is stabbed by a concealed blade in Szell's sleeve. The mortally wounded Doc reaches Babe's house and dies before he is able to confide anything about his identity.
