During World War II, Detective Ellery Queen aids Free Dutch agents battle Nazi spies over a prize haul of industrial diamonds, which are being smuggled from Holland to the United States via Egypt. The gems are hidden inside a sarcophagus in order to throw both the Nazis agents and the American authorities off the scent. When the smuggler is murdered upon arrival in the US, Ellery Queen and his police-inspector father attempt to solve the killing.
