Dispatched on a two-year tour of the Pacific, he becomes a beacon of American friendship, and influence, in the west. When a long-planned reunion with his wife is cut short by a new assignment, Clarity at last puts her foot down. If she can't keep Putnam with her, then she'll just have to go with him.
