Synopsis
In 1905 King Edwards, a police officer in South Africa, pursues three sadistic killers who have escaped en route to jail. Col. Albert Vinton, a prospector, is tortured to death by the fugitives in an attempt to locate his gold mine. Through Dr. Hamilton, a missionary, King learns the direction in which the killers are headed. He finds one of the men and learns that Vinton's wife, Deborah, is unwittingly leading the other escapees to the mine. Upon arriving in the coastal region, King visits a bar and learns the whereabouts of Baker, the man who is arranging the transportation of the gold out of the country. A gang of men paid by the fugitives ambush King, but he is rescued by Ann Peterson, a saloon girl who is later tortured to death for her interference. Meanwhile, King trails the killers to the mine, rescues Deborah, and eliminates the remaining prisoners in an explosion during the gunfight.
