December 1914. The Norwegian Atlantic liner "Bergensfjord" breaks through the British naval blockade on its way to New York. On board: the German professor Ferdinand Braun, a team from Telefunken and a brand-new very long wave machine transmitter. Their task: To upgrade the radio station in Sayville on Long Island, which maintains communication with Nauen near Berlin.

Chances are not good because suddenly the radio operator of the "Bergensfjord" disappears without a trace. And what is the role of an attractive red-haired Irish woman pretending to be a refugee from the Irish Civil War? The United States are still neutral, but no one knows for how long. And then a pandemic breaks out...
