Plot[edit]
Mercenary Frank Ryan (Brian Thompson) is summoned by US agent Thomas (George Kennedy) and given the assignment of releasing rebel leader Petros Rallis, (José Ferrer) who is being held prisoner in the country of Cypra, run by President Michael Bartos (Oliver Reed). To do this, Ryan assembles a group of female mercenaries and poses as a photo modeling company for a photography assignment. They are given a military guard for the photo-shoot but the guards are overcome by the group and together with Bartos' assistant Ana, (Michelle Moffett) they link up with other rebels, storm the prison where Rallis is being held and make their escape. At this time, Ryan realizes that he has been duped and finally confronts Thomas.
