Malta, 1943. The war in the air above Malta is over, but the battle for Europe is about to begin.

His wife Vera, an enigmatic archaeologist, arrives at the club to tell her that Henry has disappeared, presumed dead. While investigating, Margarita stumbles upon the hunt for a notorious and dangerous spy: Nero.
