In June 1943,while on a mission to penetrate the secrets of Hitler's V weapons,Gregory Sallust became unwillingly involved with a Jewish Black Magician.

The final scenes take place n the Bunker in Berlin with the Russians fighting their way into the flaming city while the mad Fuehrer strives to involve the whole German people in his own ruin.
