Returning from England in 1812, Emeline Baratt is captured by a British warship and compelled to use her nursing skills among men who regard her as an enemy. First lieutenant Owen Masters becomes her protector, but his uniform and duty force Emeline to question every sign of kindness between them.
When the captain sends Owen and Emeline ashore on an intelligence mission, neutrality is no longer possible. She must decide whether affection for a British officer can coexist with loyalty to Maryland and the United States, while Owen faces the consequences of using a civilian woman as part of wartime espionage.
