Synopsis:
In this all-star cast -- ingeniously concealing Kirk Douglas, Tony Curtis, Frank Sinatra, Robert Mitchum, and Burt Lancaster -- Adrian Messenger, before departing on a fateful plane trip, leaves a list in the hands of George C. Scott, a retired British Intelligence agent, which contains the names of 11 men who have "accidentally" died under mysterious circumstances. The unravelling of why these men, who had nothing in common outside the fact that they all were prisoners of war in Burma, were murdered is finally discovered, but will it be in time to prevent the death of a 12th potential victim, who has nothing to do with the others.
