Description: Did President Roosevelt know Pearl Harbor would be attacked? Why would anyone even think that? Our presidents are straight shooters who-- never mind. Navy Lieutenant Lowell Brady isn't the sharpest tool in the shed-- the handsome rogue does his best work between the sheets-- but he can add two and two. The smart thing is to shut up about what's coming and keep his White House job. He doesn't do the smart thing. Caught trying to warn the Pacific Fleet, he's sent to the hottest battles to be killed. Somehow he survives, but that doesn't mean the government gives up. Too many reputations are at stake. Smithsonian researcher Harriet Gallatin finds him at an old soldier's home and gets the story. But that makes her a fugitive too, and the FBI and CIA start closing in.
