Could the mysterious murder of a British diplomat decide America's role in Word War I? Winter 1917- The Great War has been raging in Europe for two and a half years. The United States has struggled to maintain its neutrality; it's idealistic President longing to mediate an end to the horrific conflict. However when a British embassy worker is murdered in Washington D.C., the American position becomes even more tenuous. With uncanny political instinct Assistant Secretary of the Navy Franklin Roosevelt realizes that the crime could hold a secret with international implications. He therefore calls in covert agent Frank Wells, a man who is tenacious to the point of obsession. As Agent Wells investigates, he uncovers a tangled web of espionage and intrigue that could shake American diplomacy to its foundations-- if he lives to present his findings.
