“He needed to trust her with his secret. She had to trust him with her life.”

New York, just before the United States enters World War II, and Linda Voss (Melanie Griffith) takes a job with Ed Leland (Michael Douglas), an international lawyer who is secretly an Office of Strategic Services operative.
