Synopsis by Hal Erickson

The Safe House stars Francis Lederer as onetime Nazi scientist Jeremias Lipp. Having successfully eluded the War Crimes commission, Lipp prepares to leave his Swiss refuge to take a job with a Middle Eastern government. But a group of Israeli agents have no intention of allowing Lipp to continue his activities. Steven Hill, later the star of Mission: Impossible, spearheads the scheme to kidnap Lipp and deliver him to his accusers. The Safe House first aired as a 1965 entry in the weekly, hour-long anthology Kraft Suspense Theatre.
