Days before the outbreak of WWII in Europe, amidst the magnificent mansions and rolling lawns of Newport, Rhode Island, a young woman is murdered. A local man is arrested, but Detective Josh Tyler is convinced that the killer is Heinrich Kraal, visiting guest speaker at the 'American First Committee' symposium and rising star of Hitler's Reich. In an unlikely alliance with enigmatic lawyer Kristen von Nagel, Tyler discovers that Kraal is linked to similar murders on previous U.S. visits. However, any chance of pursuing a case against Kraal disappears following Pearl Harbour, when Germany declares war on the USA. Three and a half years later, with Russian troops pouring into Berlin, Kraal contacts the Americans and agrees to travel to the US to stand trial for the murder. Dispatched as the arresting officer, Tyler arrives in the ravaged German capital and finds that Kraal is a Russian prisoner. And his problems are just beginning.
