Vienna, 1954: After losing everyone she loves in the final days of World War II, Ingrid Bauer agrees to a hasty marriage with a gentle Soviet embassy worker and follows him home to Moscow. She begins to suspect her husband works for the KGB. Upon her daughter's birth, Ingrid reaches out to Britain, the country of her mother's birth, and starts passing along intelligence to MI6. Washington, DC, 1980: Part of the Foreign Studies Initiative, Anya Kadinova finishes her degree at Georgetown University and returns to Moscow, leaving behind the man she loves and a country she has grown to respect. When the KGB murders her best friend, Anya picks sides and contacts the CIA. Working in a military research lab, Anya passes along Soviet military plans and schematics in an effort to end the 1980s arms race. The past catches up to the present when an unprecedented act of treachery threatens all agents operating within Eastern Europe, and both Ingrid and Anya find themselves in a race for their lives against time and the KGB.--
