Foreign Son

Son of Harlem, Lieutenant Vincent LaSalle has unexpectedly come home to New York for a single day. Tomorrow, he begins the journey to rejoin his unit in England. Heartsick with love and worry for the soldier who unexpectedly appears on her doorstep every second that he's away, Vierna Lillis nearly collapses with surprise. The couple's fleeting reunion initiates a saga that traverses the globe and takes both to places neither could have imagined.

In England, Vince is linked to Jan Holling, an adjutant to her nation's code breakers and the woman clandestinely sent to Berlin on a harrowing recovery mission. When she and the international team she's a part of are captured and tortured, because of fears about secrecy, as well as, critical information concealed within the minds of the team, someone entirely off the radar of the traitors wreaking havoc inside the British secret services is needed to attempt a rescue. Because of his familiarity with the "Tan Yank's" underutilized capabilities, Spymaster Charles Petrie urgently recruits Vince and asks him to do the impossible before it's too late-steal into the heart of the Third Reich with the help of the Polish resistance and get Jan and the others out. Stunningly, the black soldier reaches the citadel where the captives are imprisoned. But will any of them make it out alive?
