Plot Summary of Desperate Measures
"Harry Lloyd, British diplomat and former soldier is called upon by two of the world's greatest leaders to penetrate German occupied England and retrieve the greatest secret of the war — the atomic bomb. Harry enlists the help of his friend George Hayes to try and stop the top Nazi, SS officer Reinhard Heydrich, from discovering the secret. Finding and rescuing the atomic research team leads the pair into one dangerous situation after another. Along the way Harry is surprised to find himself falling for the sister of the Nazi officer charged with stopping him.
