Schneider finds a possible motive in the contents of a long-dead writer's journal, and gets caught in the web of a fifty-year old political vendetta having its roots in the anti-communist hysteria of the 1940s and 1950s.

As he closes in on the truth, his whole life is threatened with extinction, and the Red Scare ceases to be only a term in the history books.
