Van Langley is handed the toughest assignment of his career: find the traitor leaking vital secrets from his department before the intelligence reaches enemy hands and costs lives.

Federal secret agent Hendrix faces his toughest case yet when a Soviet operative named Demov proves impossible to catch through conventional surveillance—every communication channel is locked down, and the leak of American troop movements remains maddeningly hidden. While investigating Building 19, Hendrix spots an alluring woman named Cecile sunbathing on the roof, and a chance observation sparks a realization that could unravel the entire spy network's method. It's a race against time to stop an operation far more ingenious than anyone suspected.

Secret agent Beeze parachutes into Russian-held Latvia posing as an amateur bird photographer, tasked with locating and photographing a downed American B-29 bomber to prove it was unarmed—and expose Soviet propaganda.

Now Beeze must talk his way past a suspicious Soviet major who's begun to see through his bird-watching cover story.
