Set against the backdrop of World War II, the story follows Richard Temple, a prisoner of the German army in France. To cope with his dire situation, he reflects on his troubled past, marked by a difficult childhood and a talent for painting that he ultimately misuses by becoming an art forger. His life takes a turn when he falls in love with a wealthy woman, but the relationship's failure, coupled with the war's chaos, leads him into the perilous realm of espionage.
