The Battle of the Atlantic is at its peak. Packs of German U-boats are hunting and sinking U.S. supply ships. Ships are burning at their moorings in U.S. ports and a series of explosions has afflicted trains and train stations around the country - is it all accidental or is it sabotage? Meanwhile, Allied forces are secretly preparing to invade first Sicily and then Italy, and there is a lot of work that needs to be done beforehand, some with the most unlikely of helping hands. As the war heats up "Wild Bill" Donovan's agents - Dick Canidy, Eric Fulmar, Stan Fine and the rest of the crew, answerable only to Donovan and the president - suddenly find themselve battling on two fronts at once... and fate is just about to deal them a few surprises.
