When Catherine Saxon, an American correspondent reporting on the war in Europe, is found murdered in her London digs, news of her death is concealed by British authorities. Serving as a linchpin between Scotland Yard and the Secret Service, Robert MacFarlane pays a visit to Maisie Dobbs, seeking her help. He is accompanied by an agent from the U.S. Department of Justice, Mark Scott. MacFarlane asks Maisie to work with Scott to uncover the truth about Saxon's death.
As the Germans unleash the full terror of their blitzkrieg, Maisie must balance the damands of this dangerous case with her need to protect Anna, the evacuee she has grown to love. Entangled in an investigation linked to the power of wartime propaganda and American political intrigue beging played out in Britain, she will face losing her dearest friend -- and the possibility that she may be falling in love again.
