Excellently written. This kept me on the edge of my seat and eager to find out what happened next.. I look forward to the next installment in the series.

I didn't have high hopes for this one after reading The 9.45 to Bletchley but I was pleasantly surprised.
Characterisation was good and the story was intriguing, plenty of twists and turns to keep you interested.

Another story with two separate time lines. A bit different though WWII related. Ena Green recognises a woman who is dead, whose funeral she attended. She is also very sure of this woman as she worked with her for four years and was a very good friend.

That there is something fishy in the discovery, and that the discovery will not be good for Ena is apparent from the beginning. Ena worked for the Secret Service and her husband Henry still does. Ena now works on cold cases at the Home Office and it becomes more and more apparent that many people are being used in a cover up because the entire case history has disappeared from the archives.

When people whom Ena interviews or talks to start getting beaten up and murdered both Ena and Henry particularly are worried that Ena will be their next victim. What is being hidden in this story which is a good depiction of history of the time.

Very descriptive and with good characterization the two time lines though not very far apart were distinct and well detailed.

The author did a brilliant job of capturing the time period in this novel. The characters and plot were also well written. This was a great piece of historical fiction!

A very good historical thriller, well written and engrossing.
I liked the well researched historical background, the cast of characters and the plot, full of twists and turns.
I look forward to reading other books in this series.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

This is the first book in this series thatI have read and I think it would have helped if I had read the previous ones first, however I really enjoyed it.

A cerebral thriller with a beautiful sense of time and place and London in the 1950s really came alive and rung true.

Good plot and well drawn characters too.

Not much more that you can ask for in a thriller.

Thanks to netgalley for an early copy in return for an honest review

This sequel just took over and led us on what can only be described as a totally mesmerising journey of life with Ena frieda harry and friends, the detailing of events that took place were truly OUTSTANDING I actually felt as if I was there it was so real I have nothing but the highest praise for this OUTSTANDING Author and can totally recommend this series of books
