What if the only way you could discover who killed your brother was to lie to your commanding officer? May 1940. Western Europe is on edge, wondering when the Nazis will strike. America is neutral, woefully unprepared for war, and President Roosevelt tries to steer the dicey waters of international diplomacy and keep the United States out of the conflict. It is in this environment when Sergeant Lillian Saxton, US Army, receives a cryptic message from an old flame who now lives in Germany: meet me in Belgium and I'll not only give you the key to the Nazi code books but also information about the man who murdered your brother.
