Washington DC 1925
President Teddy Roosevelt's son Quentin was killed in World War I. So why is another man's corpse in his grave?

Armitage is soon targeted by powerful and ruthless forces on both sides of the Atlantic who are committed to keeping the scandal secret - at any cost.

But at what price?
