Gilmore, a partner with Donovan in a bistro, learns of the gold from Selby and the two plan to get it, but Donovan learns of it and, despite the arrival of his daughter, Aileen, who he has not seen since her childhood, joins Gilmore and Selby. A jeep they steal puts Inspector Levering on their trail and he and Aileen set out after them in a plane.
