The Tangled Web
It's the end of World War II and two young Allied soldiers find themselves behind enemy lines faced with survival and temptation. In their escape through the French woods they find a treasure trove.

From the French countryside to Marseille to London, theirs is a story of greed, romance, murder and betrayal that stretches across Europe and beyond.
