Growing up in New York City before WW2, Will Mahoney attends Fordham Prep and, at the behest of a family friend and German teacher, studies that language. When the war starts, he leaves college, joins the Army, and, through the efforts of a Jewish friend, is sent to England, where he is assigned to interrogate German prisoners of war. English Intelligence operatives train him for this work. They later recruit him for a mission with the Partisans in Yugoslavia, during which, he will impersonate a German officer.

The mission goes wrong; he is wounded and, assumed to be a German officer, taken to a German hospital. When released, he finds himself inside Nazi Germany, trying to avoid discovery while he plans an escape. He finds comfort in discovering that not all Germans support Hitler and Nazism. Relationships build, and his efforts to escape are complicated when he falls in love with a German war-widow.
