The Wilby Conspiracy Plot and Cast
Shack Twala, freed after a decade behind bars for nationalist activities, barely tastes liberty before a police run-in forces him into hiding. His lawyer Rina Van Niekirk and visiting British engineer Jim Keogh join his flight to Cape Town, where he hopes to retrieve a cache of diamonds entrusted to a dentist before his imprisonment. Major Horn of South African State Security trails them, apparently waiting until they reach their destination to make an arrest.
