In the aftermath of the Hiroshima bombing, Gary Gatlin marches forth on new orders: coordinate the surrender of the Japanese military and assure that the negotiations lead to a lasting peace. Using a secret identity, Gary travels through a war-ravaged countryside plagued by bandits. He's partnered with a seasoned Tokyo police lieutenant and together they infiltrate the Yakuza criminal underworld in a race to save Emperor Hirohito from assassination.

Later, with the arrival of the American occupation forces, Gary again goes undercover to sleuth the intentions of the gathering international delegations. He discovers that a clandestine pack of Nazi die-hards are scheming to blow up the battleship USS Missouri during the surrender ceremonies and plunge the world back into total war. Gary joins a team of elite US Navy frogmen who brave the watery depths in a desperate attempt to stop the Nazis before it is too late.
