In southern France in 1944, Billy Boyle collaborates with Resistance fighters to defend a Royal Navy Commander, uncovering a wide web of subterfuge and betrayal in the process.In the fall of 1944, Billy Boyle, Kaz, and Big Mike, returning from the Soviet Union, are called to southern France for what should be a simple assignment: they are to serve as security for Royal Navy Commander Gordon Stewart, head of the Special Operations Executive's Section F in Algiers, which oversees SOE agents sent into the southern region of occupied France. Stewart's mission is to work with Resistance leaders to gather information that will help track down Vichy officials and other traitors who escaped with the retreating Germans. Death threats have been made against Stewart, and there has already been one attempt in Algiers. Over the course of his investigation, Billy learns that Stewart has made many enemies as of late: both on the SOE side and the Resistance side, due to a financial plot gone wrong. Diana, Billy's on-again, off-again sweetheart, joins the search for the truth as well, as does the legendary 442nd Regimental Combat Team, a unit made up of entirely Nisei soldiers which went on to become the most highly-decorated unit in the history of the Army. With as much sacrifice as betrayal afoot, Billy isn't sure whom he can trust. Can he and Kaz keep Stewart safe . . . and not die in the process?
