In 1939, Europe stands on the brink of war, and Germany is desperate to find new sources of gold and platinum to fuel its war machine. When a cache of iridium, a platinum metal used in the production of the Spitfire fighter plane, is discovered in the Venezuelan Andes, Adolf Hitler personally authorizes a mission, codenamed Aguila Negra, to recover the ore and ship it back to Germany. Carburetors built with the Andean iridium would boost the Messerschmitt's velocity, giving the Germans a decided technological advantage in the battle for air supremacy.

To carry out the top-secret operation, Hitler sends a submarine force along with a small band of elite paratroopers. They successfully extract the precious metal and proceed to make a run for the Caribbean coast. Only Jack Ford, an American archaeologist working for U.S. military intelligence, stands in the way of a Nazi victory. Uncertain who to trust and which way to turn, Jack decides to take the future into his own hands-and with it, perhaps, the future of the entire war.
