    About this series

    In 1944, over a farmer's field an RAF single-engine Lysander waits for the prearranged signal to land. A flashlight beams the signal skyward and the pilot lands on a mission to support an OSS team in occupied France. Fifteen minutes after landing the pilot, Flight Lieutenant Fraser, is dead. Reported details of his death are sketchy and another pilot takes over Fraser's run.

    In 1974, Sir Douglas Kinkaid hosts a banquet to honor Flight Lieutenant Fraser for former members of 138 Squadron. A German pilot and an OSS officer are invited to speak. When the German pilot finishes he introduces the former OSS officer.

    The OSS officer is well known to the audience—occasionally he appears on television and is frequently mentioned in the press. After much thought, the OSS officer decides to tell the members of 138 Squadron how Fraser really died and a dramatic story unfolds.

      In 1918 a sergeant saves the life of a pilot who crashes in no-man's-land. After the war the two ex-soldiers construct a bootlegging empire. To account for their illegal income, they finance two engineers who claim to have discovered diamonds in British Guiana. Certain the venture will fail, they 'cook' the books to show income from the mine. In 1933 they are forced to flee the country. In British Guiana they find the mine is successful and take an active role—they buy a British Avro, hack an airfield out of the jungle, and fly supplies to the mine. In 1934 the mine produces an enormous cache of diamonds. The sack of diamonds is loaded aboard the Avro that crashes in an unexplored, inaccessible area of Guiana populated by aborigines. The fact that diamonds were aboard is closely held. In 1940, Hitler learns that diamonds were aboard the biplane and orders the SS to recover them. Churchill learns of the plan...

      In 1942, two OSS officers are tasked with kidnapping a German officer from an internment camp in a neutral country. Their assignment is to kidnap the physicist—they are authorized to execute him if the kidnapping attempt fails. The officer is one of Germany`s leading physicists who Army Intelligence believes was inadvertently assigned to the Africa Corps. Realizing their mistake, the Germans reassign him to the Kaiser Wilheim Institute of Physics. While flying back to Berlin, his aircraft is shot down and Turkish fisherman pluck the physicist from the Gulf of Adalia. Subsequently, according to international law, he is interned by the neutral Turkish government. At a meeting with President Roosevelt's aide, Harry Hopkins, the OSS officers are handed a technically complex planning document. They think the plan is unworkable until they see Jimmy Doolittle`s signature. Hopkins informs them the president has just greenlighted the operation and their orders stand—get him out or exterminate him.
