Driver Alexander Graves, racer and patriot, is thrown into conflict with his revered “Patron.”

Can Alexander destroy explosive torpedoes bound for U-Boat ports to sink Allied ships without leveling the factory?

With a mechanics ingenuity and with matchless skill behind a Bugatti’s wood-rimmed steering wheel, Alexander starts the race of his life.
