At Midnight, February 14th....In the black wilderness of Brazil's vast Mountains of the Sea, a man waited patiently for an execution. Within minutes he would kill the unsuspecting American who thought him a trusted ally.
Nick Carter hurries to Rio to assist industrialist Todd Denison, whose life has been threatened. But before Nick can arrive, Todd turns up dead. The death appears accidental, until Nick proves it was murder. A search for the killers involves Nick, Todd's pretty widow, and his secretary Maria Hawes. Maria informs Nick that Todd had many enemies who were trying to prevent his building a new plant in the mountains that would raise wages and living standards for the local population. When Nick is attacked, extremist leader Rojadas is implicated. Is Rojadas a friend or foe? Is he behind the planned mass murders. The assassinations were timed to occur during the Carnival in Rio. Thousands would die in minutes.
