Story
The action takes place in Copenhagen during 1944. In the center of the plot are two active participants in the resistance, known under the nickname Flame and Citron. They work for Danish police chief Axel Winter, who through Stockholm maintains contact with the British command, and perform tasks to eliminate Danish collaborators and German agents infiltrating the underground network. Since it is not known exactly who can be a traitor, the atmosphere in the group is heating up. The situation is complicated by Ketty Selmer, whom the Flame met some time ago and which, apparently, plays a significant and completely mysterious role in this matter ...
