When Blynn stumbles across the perfect verse to finish the song, the hunt for the author begins, leading them from an old asylum to a scholarly Rabbi where they learn that an ancient Jewish Rabbi living in Germany during the time of the first crusade originally composed the verse that they are now using to complete their father's song.

After the Armistice some of them, prisoners of war in German POW camps, escaped and joined various resistance groups. The American, Peter Forrester, joins the US Army and is recruited by US Intelligence for his language skills and for the fact he had lived in Germany and France before the war.
