The Luftwaffe has been bombing London continuously since September 1940. During a bombing raid, Madeline Fairfax is caught while preparing dinner for her little boy. Trapped in her own kitchen as a bomb explodes at the rear of her home, she regains consciousness just in time to see a familiar face, offering hope of rescue. But instead, Madeline is tragically strangled to death. As a dangerous murderer uses the Blitz to cover their crime, local detective Jamie Barton enlists the help of Madeline’s sister and AFS worker, Penny Fairfax to help. Now, caught in a web of uncertainty and mistrust, a grieving Penny must find the truth and do whatever it takes to protect those she loves most. Together, will they unravel this case before it's too late…? A gripping and completely addictive page-turner set in World War Two London during the Blitz. Perfect for fans of Suzanne Goldring and Kate Quinn.
