| The Story
Indy finds that he must enlist the
help of Habsburg royalty when he embarks on a
dangerous diplomatic mission through enemy-held
Europe into the palace of Emperor Karl of Austria.
Endangering his life and the lives of his royal
charges, Indy gambles all in a desperate attempt
to bring the war more quickly to an end.
Then, in chaos-ridden Russia, Indy
finds his espionage work once again threatening
lives when he infiltrates a group of young Bolsheviks
and begins to sympathize with their plight. As
the country lurches toward revolution, Indy finds
himself torn between loyalty to his friends and
his military duty.

Officer in the Belgian army and the intermediary
for his brother-in-law, Emperor Charles
I of Austria-Hungary, in Charles' secret

in 1918 the French government published
a letter written by Charles to Sixtus which
caused acute embarrassment to the Austrian
government.

of Austria, the last King
