Raskin had known the long-time intelligence operative for forty years. Herrsch was Raskins mentor, and theyd shared risks and danger. But in all that time Herrsch never mentioned a family. He had died in Switzerland and been buried on an estate thereanother surprise. Herrsch led an OSS team on an operation at the time of the Normandy invasion. Shortly after the three operatives parachuted into eastern France, the Germans were onto them. They had been betrayed, as had the men theyd be sent to replace. Eluding the pursuing German troops, Herrsch made it into Switzerland. Raskin knew about this history, but knew nothing more about a Swiss connection. Now Raskin is determined to uncover his friends past. He enlists the assistance of Fritz Kohl and Alex Fletcher, two former CIA analysts who were briefly acquaintances of Herrsch.
