Niven is an Englishman living in the South American nation of Tibulacion with his shrewish wife, Caron. He encounters Opatoshu, the deposed president of the country, who has been wounded in the overthrow of his government. Niven ministers to the former leader and tries to smuggle him across the border. There is trouble along the way, and Niven is forced to deal with the moral consequences of killing a man. Too many implausibilities really to work.
