He returns to his regiment after a crash course in secret codes, linguistics, and the German language from a female brain trust assembled by the Earl of Gall. Now, in addition to his normal duties of soldier and scout, he has agreed to gather intelligence for this group of female cryptanalysts Russell calls McAlpin's Amazons.During the months of phoney war prior to May, 1940, Russell and a fellow soldier enter Belgium in the role of American tourists. They meet ordinary citizens unprepared for war and encounter American Bund members working for the Nazis.
Finally Russell, the Gall Light Armoured and the British Expeditionary Force meet the full force of the Nazi Blitzkrieg.
