It's 1948 and World War II is over, but the world is not at peace. In San Francisco, Barbara Lavette, author and foreign correspondent, is trying to make a new life with her young son and husband Bernie Cohen, the solider she met in France during the war. Her family is just settling in when Bernie receives an urgent and mysterious phone call that takes him away on a secret mission and leads Barbara to Congressional confrontations, jail, and eventually to unforgettable tragedy.
