Rolf Pedersen, a Norwegian physics professor, who, though originally content to wait out the war, is soon pulled into the struggle by local resistance leader Knut Straud (based on Knut Haukelid).

Rolf's ex-wife Anna also becomes involved in the effort, and her relationship with Rolf reignites.

Then the two return to Norway by parachute to plan a commando raid against the plant.
