Paris, 1939

The most sought-after woman in the French Resistance.

War is coming, but Océane Bell is focused on her studies. She enrols at Sorbonne Medical School in Paris and begins working at a local hospital, keeping out of politics.

That is until she meets Jean-Jacques Riveau. He is a passionate and talented artist. But when the Nazis take Paris, Jean-Jacques abandons his art to join the Resistance movement.

Océane tries to stay out of it, but when Jean-Jacques is arrested by the Gestapo, she has to do something.

Dieter Von Stein, the cruel, enigmatic head of the Paris Gestapo, is in need of a personal physician. Océane sees her opportunity and takes it, figuring she'll be able to use her new position to find out where her lover is being kept and rescue him.

Her new boss, however, has other plans... for Jean-Jacques and for Océane. A dangerous game ensues, and there can only be one winner.

Can Océane outsmart Dieter Von Stein? Or will the game be up for both her and her lover?
