Set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War protests, Judith Nies's life shifts dramatically when she discovers her name in an FBI file, marking her as a target of investigation due to her political activism. As a speechwriter for antiwar congressmen, she grapples with her identity and responsibilities, questioning her previous complacency as both a dedicated employee and a supportive wife. This revelation ignites a transformative journey of self-discovery and political awakening amidst a turbulent historical context.
