A World War II story about a spy in the Hitler Youth. Michael O'Shaunessey, son of the Irish ambassador to Nazi Germany, lives with his family in Berlin. But Michael, like his parents, is a spy. He joins the Hitler Youth using his insider knowledge to bring important information back to his parents and the British Secret Service.

When Michael is tasked to find out more about Projekt 1065, a secret Nazi mission, he must prove his loyalty to the Hitler Youth at all costs–even if it means risking the lives of his family... and himself.
