The artists of the front acting brigade are so easy to take. On their side is a creative approach, courage, beauty, dexterity and ... a cello case full of explosives. They are ready for anything to help the front, even sacrifice themselves. The only thing the young playwright Leonid Kruchinin is not ready to give up is his love for the unearthly Lara Vishnevskaya, the star of the Soviet screen. To save her life, he is ready to rewrite his best novel over and over again. A novel about love, war, a front-line acting brigade, and sabotage inconceivable by the audacity of sabotage.

One of the most spectacular and renowned conductors of the 1930s, Wilhelm Furtwangler's reputation rivaled that of Toscanini's. After the war, he was investigated as part of the Allies' de-Nazification programme. In the bombed-out Berlin of the immediate post-war period, the Allies slowly bring law and order to bear on an occupied Germany. An American major is given the Furtwangler file, and is told to find everything he can and to prosecute the man ruthlessly. Tough and hard-nosed, Major Steve Arnold sets out to investigate a world of which he knows nothing.
