This fast paced novel follows a former American movie star who becomes a spy for Winston Churchill. He is determined to rescue Jewish children from Germany, before disrupting the German spy apparatus in America. Tommy and Ginny Babcock were very popular dancers who filled seats on Broadway and in movie theaters for a decade, until Ginny married a rich Englishman. Tommy's recruitment by Churchill takes him in a new direction that has deadly consequences. In the novel we meet Franklin Roosevelt, Wendell Willkie and others who influenced America's attitude toward Europe. In 1938 Americans want nothing to do with Europe, after feeling betrayed by World War One and its aftermath. Tommy's love interest, a beautiful Chinese woman, is threatened by an assassin who wants to remove her from his life, permanently. His efforts to protect her fuel the tension of this historical adventure. The reader is left guessing until the end about what the future holds for America in a world that includes fascism, communism and the nativists of America First.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRich Whitney Turner has covered presidential campaigns as a wire service reporter, been a journalism professor and university vice president.
