By William Charles Hatounian

After graduating from Columbia University, Jack Omartian gets recruited into the United States Navy. After Officer Candidate School, he requests and gets assigned to Naval Intelligence in Washington D.C. After gaining a reputation for insight into Middle Eastern objectives, Jack gets recruited into a new agency called the Office of Strategic Intelligence. Because of his background as an Armenian American who speaks, reads, and writes in three languages, the U.S. sent Jack to Turkey in 1910. The United States suspects the Ottoman Empire is conspiring to deflect attention from itself and onto another nation to continue to oppress the Balkan countries it occupies. While there, Jack meets an Armenian girl in Izmir. Together, they overcome violent gangs, tragedy, and sadness in Jack's attempt to uncover the Ottoman's real intent. Especially if it will lead to the United States becoming involved. Jack discovers and thwarts an attempt by Balkan separatists to hijack an ocean liner. Later he rescues an American heiress secretly kidnapped by the Ottomans to force the United States into conflict. Eventually, Jack marries his girlfriend, they escape the Ottomans, return to America, and live happily ever after.
