"Intrigue" depicts a tense espionage confrontation between Soviet spies in a London fog and U.S. secret agent Duke Douglas. The story involves a covert operation where Soviet agents attempt to obtain secret documents from the Kremlin's ivory tower, with the action climaxing as one operative arrives via boat at the Dover Cliffs. A witness, Virgil Stagg, unexpectedly encounters the operation and becomes entangled in the dangerous situation, forcing him to contact an ocean-going ship before police roadblocks are set up. The narrative culminates with the protagonist narrowly escaping by sea while pursued operatives threaten to "head for sea" in pursuit.
