Amid turmoil, Wolfie and Buster, vying for Maddie’s heart, must join forces to confront a sinister Nazi plot, Operation Sunshine, which fore-shadows the impending horror.

The world’s refusal to help this one ship ignites the flame that gives the Nazis the green light to proceed with their diabolical plans to annihilate Europe’s Jewish populations.
