In 1943 Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Sam Miller is a cop supporting his family and trying to stay on the right side of his boss, the law, and his conscience. A body is then found near the train tracks, the number tattooed on the victim's wrist. This is one that Sam could have walked away from. This is a case he will be ordered to give up. And it is this incident that leads him into a deadly maelstrom of politics, espionage, rebellion and international intrigue. As war rages in Europe, a new power rises in America. And the people Sam thinks he knows best—his wife, his brother, his coworkers—reveal new identities. In a once close-knit city by the sea, where no one is above suspicion and no one is safe, a global summit is about to take place. On this day history will change. And millions of people will live or die because Sam Miller was a very good cop - faced with very bad choices. Over 18 Cover design provided by an English-language publisher
