It's been eight years since the end of the war, and somebody is still killing Nazis. German scientists, relocated to the US under Operation Paperclip, are being systematically exterminated - but by whom? The FBI has enough on its plate with its continued hunt for 'reds under the bed' and so turns to an unlikely source for help in the form of contract assassin, Daniel Miller. And, the offer couldn't have come at a better time. Miller, disillusioned by almost a decade of killing, yearns for a change of direction. Tasked with tracking down and stopping those responsible, he leapfrogs across the continent and begins to unearth the truth - a primal tension that predates the Cold War and an underlying web of conspiracies linking the CIA, KGB, and… The Vatican.
