Anna works at the Brooklyn Naval Yard, where women hold jobs that were once the preserve of men. She becomes the first female diver, the most dangerous of occupations, repairing the ships that will help America win the war. One evening at a nightclub, she meets Dexter Styles again, and begins to understand the complexity of her father's life and the reasons he might have vanished.
