En la década de 1920, el inglés William Grover-Williams y el francés Robert Benoist son rivales que compiten con sus elegantes Bugattis en los circuitos europeos. Ambos están enamorados de Eve Aubicq. Cuando estalla la guerra, son reclutados por el Ejecutivo de Operaciones Especiales para misiones tras las líneas enemigas en Francia, investigando rumores sobre la fabricación del gas letal Zyklon B. En una serie de sabotajes y asesinatos, causan estragos a los alemanes, pero finalmente son capturados y torturados. Basada en una historia real de la actividad encubierta británica y la resistencia francesa durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, esta es una novela de heroísmo, autosacrificio, amor y traición.
