When Billy Coke steps onto the streets of London one December evening in 1940, he has no idea he is stepping to his fate. As Hitler's bombers come close to burning the city down, Billy meets the woman who will change the course of his life: Ilse Magnusson, a musician from Norway, but also something more - a spy in training. Now they must part, each to fight the war their own way. They know that the odds of both of them surviving are poor. All they can hope is that the other does survive - and that someday they find each other again.
