The time is June 1942, the beginning of America's first summer at
war. Somewhere off the coast of Massachusetts a German U-boat
surfaces under cover of darkness. Aboard the U-boat are two agents
of the Abwehr, Germany's military intelligence service, whom the
ship's commander has been ordered to drop safely on American soil.
The agents have as their mission to conduct sabotage against
military and industrial installations. Hitler's intention in
devising such an operation is to remind Americans he has the
capability and the will to bring the war to their
backyard.
As the two agents are bringing their equipment ashore, they are
surprised by a patrolling US Coastguardsman, who is quickly killed
by one of the crewmen from the U-boat but an attack dog
accompanying him badly mauls one of the agents. Desperately in need
of medical attention, the wounded agent must be returned to the
U-boat for treatment. As the crewmen disappear into the night Erich
Stinnes, alias Karl Stoner, is left with the sudden realization he
will be carrying out this operation on his own.
Stoner is fortunate in not only finding a job at the local shipyard
but he is able to rent an apartment from an attractive woman, who
is recently widowed. It is not long before the two of them
begin an affair that causes Karl, already ambivalent about the war,
to question the wisdom of his mission. Before he can resolve his
dilemma, an incident at the shipyard exposes him for what he is.
Having no choice he is forced to flee leaving Anne to suffer the
consequences of her affair with a Nazi spy.
