The Agatha Award winner, the Macavity Award winner, and the Left Coast Crime Award winner for Best Historical Mystery were all given to this book.
When a soldier with a failing parachute falls to his death on the estate of Farleigh Place, the ancestral home of Lord Westerham and his five daughters, the Second World War breaks out. Suspicion is aroused by his belongings and clothing, so Ben Cresswell, an MI5 agent and family friend, is secretly sent to investigate if the guy is a German spy. The assignment also offers Ben the chance to be near Lord Westerham’s middle daughter, Pamela, whom he furtively loves. Pamela, however, has a secret of her own: she works at the British code-breaking facility, Bletchley Park.
Ben learns that some people in the realm have a horrible, history-altering objective as he pursues a trail of spies and traitors, which may involve another member of Pamela's family. Can he stop them before England falls, with Pamela's help?
Inspired by the events and people of World War II, writer Rhys Bowen crafts a sweeping and riveting saga of class, family, love, and betrayal.
