My French Whore

World War I has almost come to an end, but for a young Minneapolis railway employee and amateur actor named Paul Peachy, whose marriage has become one-sided, it's time to enlist. Shipped off to France, Peachy realizes how out of his depth he is and never more so than when he is captured. Risking everything, Peachy who as a child of immigrants speaks German makes the reckless decision to impersonate one of the enemy's most famous spies.

As the urbane and accomplished spy Harry Stroller, Peachy enters a world he never even knew existed a world of sumptuous living, world-weary men and available women. But when one of those women Annie Breton, a young, wary and beautiful courtesan turns out to be more than she seems, both Peachy's and Annie's lives are transformed forever."
