An espionage novel set in French Canada at the beginning of World War II. Clement R. Hoopes was an author and former State Department administrator. Mr. Hoopes's works included three novels.

Mr. Hoopes was director of national development for the American Shakespeare Festival Theater and Academy at Stratford, Conn., in the 1960's, and helped organize the Shakespeare 400th birthday committee for the 1964 celebration. A former member of the United States Information Agency, he was also associated with Time Inc., the Washington Historical Waxworks Museum, the publishing concerns of Harper & Brothers and Devin Adair, and the Marshall Plan mission to Ireland.
