It's 1938.
Artist Charles Goodgame is trying to live a quiet life while the clouds of war gather over Europe, but on a visit to Berlin to see his stepsister Polly, one careless mistake catapults him into a world of spies, lies and danger. The Germans threaten to lock him up for life unless he spies for them. On his return to London, he finds himself in deep trouble with the British secret service, too.
Meanwhile, Charles's provocative political cartoons are getting him into even more hot water. A shadowy but influential organisation is determined to silence him and ruin his reputation.
Charles must somehow find his way through this minefield of trouble. Can he avoid becoming a double agent and risking his life? And will Polly help him escape the chaos - or drag him even more deeply into it?
