From Canada's leading author of historical mysteries, Maureen Jennings, comes the haunting fourth novel in the DI Tom Tyler series. Occur Britain through the darkest days and nights of World War II, this is a must-listen for admirers of Foyle's War, Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs series, and wartime dramas. It's overdue 1942; the conflict continues to be raging and the upcoming Christmas season looks bleak. Detective Inspector Tom Tyler is settling into his placement in Ludlow, Shropshire, a small town jammed with people directed there by the turmoil. Around the outskirts can be an Italian PoW camp and many PoWs work on local farms where manpower is sorely needed. Fraternizing is forbidden but, as Tyler knows only too well, the human heart has a way of crossing limitations. Tyler's job is both to keep carefully the peace and enforce wartime laws. Magistrate's court is busy. Then a stressed old man runs missing in a winter surprise. The very next day his is discovered in a secret hideout supposedly recognized to very few. It soon becomes clear that a crime has been devoted, and there is absolutely no shortage of suspects. Tyler senses that both evacuee children who found the body are not showing the entire fact, but when he goes to question them further, he learns they took off from their foster home. It becomes very important that he see them. Showcasing her characteristic masterful storytelling and profound empathy for her individuals - from the bravest and most blameless to the profoundly stressed - Jennings has created another outstanding novel that is both a puzzle and a rich, satisfying hearing experience.
