Instead he finds himself summoned to Scotland, to interview a man no one can really believe is the real Deputy Fuhrer. His journey proves fortuitous as Klaus spots an old friend in trouble and comes up with a daring plan to help him.

Meanwhile, Charlotte is summoned for her first SOE mission; to go to France to sabotage an electric transformer station. Her companions in the scheme prove to be less than exemplary agents and soon the plan begins to unravel. Charlotte finds herself betrayed and running for her life.
