On the eve of the D-Day invasion of occupied Europe, a clandestine plan is taking shape. Its task: Parachute into occupied France. Once there, capture a Nazi officer. Seems straightforward, or at least that's what Sergeant Peter Donalds and his men thought. Members of the famed "Black Devils", a commando unit composed of American and Canadian soldiers, they are soon embroiled in a secret mission that will force them to not only fight for their lives but reexamine everything they thought they knew.

The winds of war grow dark around General George Meade, appointed to command the Army of the Potomac just three days before a brewing battle against Robert E. Lee, charismatic leader of the Confederate forces. No one - not even the outgoing commander - seems to know where Lee’s army is, except that they are somewhere on Northern soil, possibly pushing toward a decisive battle deep in the heart of the Union. Thwarted by insufficient intelligence and betrayed by an unscrupulous general, Meade knows it will take all his skill and the heroism of his troops to best the undefeated Lee.
