English Flight Lieutenant Oliver Carmichael and German Baron Julius von Stulpnagel both have the same problem: how to persuade the other to betray his country. They think pretty, ambitious ex-convert-girl Mary Collins might help themif her high-spirited red-haired sidekick Niamh Slattery doesn't get in the way.
