March, 1944: US Army Lieutenant Billy Boyle, back in England after a dangerous mission in Italy, is due for a little R&R and a promotion. But two cases prevent now-Captain Boyle from kicking back. The first is a personal request from an estranged friend who grew up with Billy in Boston, and is part of the US Army?s first combatant African-American company. The second is a bizarre and delicate murder case from British intelligence.
