Jack Devlin is a journalist working out of London in 1986, making a living through writing obituaries. Asked to write an obit for a French-Canadian war hero, he stumbles across a previously untold story - the story of 60 French Canadians sent to France to work with the French resistance movement. Spanning 1980s and Second World War London, German-occupied France, and Scottish special-ops camps, Obit Man spins a tale of wartime coverups.
