It’s 1943 and the Navy is counting on the barge Omaha to get its load of munitions safely to the Gulf of Mexico. But when a seductive voice is heard over the ship’s radio and members of the crew begin to disappear, the Captain knows it’s more than the unpredictable wiles of the Missouri River they’re up against!
