Escape to Athena -- During World War II, the prisoners of a German camp on a Greek island are trying to escape. They not only want their freedom, but they also seek an ineffable treasure hidden in a monastery at the top of the island's mountain.

The Fuehrer's scheme for looting a treasure-laden island off Greece is under way. Prisoners of war labour under the eye of the camp's Austrian Commandant, Major Otto Hecht (Roger Moore), as they dig up priceless Greek art. Zeno, the island's resistance leader, and his woman, Eleana, a bordello madam, scheme to defeat the occupiers. Zeno and his men clash with the Germans to save the lives of condemned prisoners, and try to locate a submarine oil supply depot. If the Germans are to be defeated, they must also seek and dismantle the communications equipment on Mount Athens, which promises a blaze of action.

In the darkest days of World War II, Hitler's armies are storming through Europe, annihilating all opposition in their path. But US Colonel Barnsby (Ford) plots to strike a crippling blow to the brutal Nazi forces. To succeed, he'll need the help of the most skilled and lethal soldiers in the world: the Force 10 squad, fresh from its triumphant mission at Navarone.

In the Andes Mountains a group of archaeologists are murdered after they discover uncut emeralds. Back in New York, Joseph Wiley is down on his luck and has to get away from it all. He runs off to Mexico where he meets Lilian Holbrook. The two are instantly attracted to each other, but Lilian is on her way to meet Meno Argenti, the man who intends to marry her. In a borrowed hotel suite, Wiley is baffled when a mysterious caller tells him to 'look at the samples' in his drawer. The samples are stolen emeralds. Their scheme is brilliant. If they succeed, they’re rich beyond their imagination. If they don't, they're dead.
