An FBI exploration of a German spy diamond ring on American earth threatens to devastate lives, is in love with, and households 40 years after the end of World Conflict II. A watertight packet is uncovered by a diver in the waters adjoining Stop Island. Unrecovered detritus from the previous German U-boat sunk off the seacoast of Rhode Island, it includes secret codes suggesting a Nazi spy diamond ring operated in the United States through the darkest days and nights of World Conflict II. If proved, it could show a major humiliation to the FBI - whose late director, J. Edgar Hoover, once assured the government there were no spies in the country - so the bureau sends one of its best, Device Chief Todd Oliver, to Newport to investigate. A battle that concluded four decades previously is not yet over for some in this New England naval town, as Oliver's quest threatens to eliminate the lives and relationships of the guilty and the innocent likewise. Abruptly dark, lingering shadows are almost everywhere, enveloping well known pillars of the city, the wealthy and powerful in their mansions on "the Avenue", and reputable, law-abiding residents who merely desire to neglect. Even Oliver himself is not safe, as the agent's questions into hidden knowledge wartime espionage get started unraveling strong, sacred bonds of love, a friendly relationship, and family, tempting the dedicated operative to bargain everything he means when confronted with a stunning murder that stones Newport contemporary society to its core.
