In the winter of 1944, a Lancaster bomber is attacked over occupied France and only Neville and Urquhart survive the crash. The two airmen parachute into territory controlled by German security forces and are taken in by the French Resistance. Their attempt to evade capture develops into a dangerous partnership with an underground network already under intense pressure.

The downed airmen enter the clandestine world of the French Resistance during the final winter of occupation. The novel contrasts visible aerial warfare with underground networks dependent on secrecy, local knowledge and the constant risk of betrayal.
