Synopsis

Espionage is the last thing on her mind when a young patriotic college graduate, Abby St. Giles travels to Washington to join in the war effort. But soon she finds herself one of the four thousand women who make up one fifth of the cloak and dagger skullduggery of OSS (the Office of Strategic Services) America's first central intelligence agency of World War II. When the murder of her friend, Suzanne, a Navy Lieutenant, implicates a suspicious "French diplomat" and a treasonous connection emerges to a prominent Senator, a top secret search begins for "Jana" code name of a German master spy whose network of operations is disrupting the allies efforts to destroy the German war machine. From America to Europe she joins her OSS colleagues in the tantalizing clandestine operations of intelligence, and discovers more about loyalty, sacrificial patriotism, and the horrors of war than she bargained for. But amidst the tragedy and devastation, she finds a depth of strength and an enduring faith which carries her through. A clinical, forensic psychologist and veteran of OSS, Dr. Margaret Emanuelson draws from her past experiences to weave her characters in and out of each other's lives in this fascinating, riveting, fast moving story of espionage, political intrigue, murder, treason, deception, patriotism, and love.
