March, 1938. Austrian fascists run wild in the streets of Vienna. In Paris, Nicholas Morath, former Hungarian cavalry officer, returns home to his young mistress. He has been in Slovakia performing a quiet favour for his uncle, Polanyi, a diplomat. Desperate to stop his country's drift into alliance with Nazi Germany, Polanyi trades in conspiracy, but it is Morath who does his work for him. Drawn deeper and deeper into danger, quiet favours become secret missions and Paris moves closer towards war. 2000.

"Nicholas Morath is the descendant of Magyar nobles, a veteran cavalry officer, and an emigré in Paris attached to the Hungarian legation. His uncle and overseer, Count Polanyi, a man of great influence and intense national pride, is committed to the cause of maintaining Hungarian sovereignty and preventing open war."@en
"Nicholas Morath works in a Paris advertising agency, but he travels on a Hungarian diplomatic passport and, when called upon by his uncle Janos, a powerful and shadowy figure, he begins to undertake missions which draw him into the complex world of 1930s European politics and war."@en
