February 1939 and Europe is on the brink of war. Charles Mossman is in a bar in Hell's Kitchen, New York, reeling from the loss of his job and his failing marriage, whilst outside thousands of Nazi sympathisers are attending a hate-spewing rally. As he confronts one, Charles makes a horrendous mistake with deadly consequences. Two years later, Charles is released from prison and tries to make amends with his wife and daughter. America is wrestling with whether to enter the war but support is growing, driving Nazi sympathisers underground. Charles begins to understand that surrounding them there are forces that will use any means necessary to bring about the downfall of his nation.

All Charles wants is to redeem himself as ahusband and father, but sometimes a man must do whatever it takes to stand up for his family and what he believes, even sacrificing his life to do so ..
