In 1945, just after the German surrender, Major Kaufmann of G-2 Counterintelligence receives disturbing reports. Aerial bombs are missing from Italy. German POW airmen are being transferred to France for no obvious reason. A fleet of B17s disappears without a trace. When Kaufmann tries to follow up, his contacts are murdered before he can reach them. Then the word comes from Eisenhowerâs office: stop Kaufmannâstop him dead. Can Kaufmann evade the traitors, whoever they are, long enough to stop the world from going into a tailspin?
