The discovery of the body of a German war hero in a desolate wooden section of Rock Creek Park in Washington DC and the ghoulish portrait of a face on the internet are the catalysts which trigger this thrilling tale.

It highlights the fears and moods surrounding the global conflict of seventy years ago and some of the same insecurities that have resurfaced today. The fifth book in the Mike McCabe series.
