But the overarching narrative takes three clandestine FBI agents, Olivia Dunham, Peter Bishop, and Walter Bishop, through a mind-bending investigation of a parallel reality that threatens to destroy ours.

Originally published at the height of Nazi Germany's power, "The Moon Is Down" is a masterful play that uncovers profound, often unsettling truths about war and human nature. It tells the story of a peaceable town taken by enemy troops, and had an extraordinary impact as Allied propaganda in Nazi-occupied Europe.
