Synopsis

Sisters in Terror

Nobel laureate Dr. Bergwald disappears on the way to accept the prize. Mrs. Bergwald hires Vancouver P.I. Bill Nelson to find her husband. Bill's friend, Max Altman, discovers that Dr. Bergwald's assistant and lover Andrea Sullivan is a Russian sleeper agent.

In Copenhagen Bill makes an inquiry at a hotel. A clerk informs him that Dr. Bergwald has left for Malmo, Sweden. While waiting for a ferry Bill notices a man following him. A confrontation leaves the other man dead.

In Malmo, Bill examines a hotel. He hears a young woman querying the clerk about Dr. Bergwald. Her inquiry might alert the opposition. Bill asks to speak with her when he notices another woman. She was also at the hotel in Copenhagen.

He tells the reporter, Lena Gustafsson, that they may be in danger. They leave the hotel, but the enemy spots them on the street. A bullet grazes Lena, but the two escape. In the aftermath of their ordeal, they fall in love.

They still don't know who their enemy is, and Bill contacts Max, who sends a fax to Lena's paper. While retrieving the fax, a car tries to run Bill down. The mysterious enemy has caught up with him, but he evades his pursuer.

The fax details a female terrorist group called The Second Sister. This group recruited Andrea Sullivan, who delivered her lover to the terrorists. Lena also discovers a young woman, the daughter of a wealthy Swedish industrialist. Believing that Dr. Bergwald is a prisoner at a castle Mr. Soderstrom owns, they go there.

At the castle they find Andrea locked in a dungeon. Before they can interrogate Andrea, shots ring out and the Russian agent dies. The shooter leaves in a car. Lena tells Bill that the killer looked like the daughter of the industrialist.

Not able to find Dr. Bergwald they return to Malmo. They have another piece of information. There are two Soderstrom girls, identical twins. This explains how one girl could be in two places at the same time.

The leaders of the Second Sister die in an ambush. Bill and Lena zero in on another of Soderstrom's holdings. Here, the terrorists capture them, and finally, meet Dr. Bergwald

The terrorists take the three prisoners to a small harbor. Before reaching a ship, gunfire erupts from a nearby hill. Simultaneously, occupants of the yacht return the fire, and one twin dies. With the remaining sister, Bill, Lena, and Dr. Bergwald get away. A helicopter sprays their vehicle with bullets. They injure both women. Lena's wound is severe, and the other's fatal. Their pursuers recapture the scientist. With the terrorists gone, Bill calls for help. Lena survives, but the police arrest Bill on suspicion of murder.

When released Bill contacts Arvid Soderstrom. Before committing himself, Bill approaches three agents of the Swedish Security Police (SAPO). Together they will try to expose the industrialist. At the Soderstrom estate, Bill and the SAPO agents get caught but escape. A battle ensues as another group attacks the manor. Arvid Soderstrom flees, but Bill catches up with him. As Bill brings his prisoner back, a rouge SAPO agent kills Soderstrom. Bill neutralizes the killer.

He then leads the Swedish police to a boat. A Swedish SWAT team rescues Dr. Bergwald. It is a bittersweet return to Canada. While Bill was successful in finding Dr. Bergwald, he and Lena ended their affair.
