blitz-torn London, the D-day assault on the sixth of June. It tells the story of Brad Parker, heir apparent to a Connecticut newspaper empire, who went overseas owing his loyalty and his love to his wife, Jane. It tells the story, too, of Valerie Russell -- beautiful, compassionate, war-weary -- who owed her loyalty to a brave Englishman. Brad and Valerie fell deeply, helplessly in love. In sight of each other their primary loyalties fell away.
