When the British and Canadian governments want the people of the world, particularly France, to be reminded of the French Vichy government's involvement and active participation in the Final Solution during World War 2, a simple plan of communication turns into dangers never anticipated.
Special consultant to MI6 Ed Crowe, along with his special friend and CSIS operative Pat W., spend their August 1985 'honeymoon' in Paris in order to communicate the details of the Vichy's proactive involvement. The success of the plan leads to international headlines and the identification of neo-Nazi groups in both France and Britain, including their importation of illegal drugs into Britain.
The ensuing activity results in the reluctant involvement of Scotland Yard and the enthusiastic involvement of the CIA.
While the work is dangerous and deadly, it only serves to deepen the love between Ed Crowe and Carolyn Andrews, daughter of Lord Stonebridge, the head of the British Secret Service, MI6.
