But Martin is not the German Warren expected. After his early attempts to get rid of Martin fail, Warren takes his dead brother Pete's advice and finds himself learning more from his enemy than he ever expected. Soon Martin, a promising track-and-field athlete before the war, is coaching Warren for his provincial Summer Games race. And when a trio of local bullies threatens their lives, Warren and Martin are forced to rely on each other like never before.
