‘[A] witty, unusual murder mystery’ SUNDAY TIMES
A compelling wartime mystery, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie's Partners in Crime and Foyle's War.
SUMMER 1944.
The tide of war is turning. The Allies are at the gates of Paris. But the Nazis have one last chance of victory – and its success depends on a traitor in the quiet English village of Larkwhistle in the New Forest.
When Jill Metcalfe receives the news of her brother Henry’s death from his friend, US Air Force officer Jack Strafford, she learns of more than just his loss – she is recruited to continue his mission.
Jack has come to the village in the hope that Henry’s cryptic last words will reveal the identity of the traitor he is hunting. With Jill at his side, they begin to investigate.
?
But someone doesn’t want them looking into what happened to Henry. And when a body is discovered, it seems like there might be more to this little village – and its inhabitants – than first meets the eye. ?
Will they discover the traitor in their midst, or will the war claim more victims?
