Summary
Hampshire, 1943.
Kim Maxwell has been languishing in the “cooler” in what she sees as punishment for getting caught—and tortured—by the Nazis, before being freed by Resistance fighters and smuggled back into England. Now she is sent for by the head of SOE. This is her chance to prove herself.
A fellow agent has been found murdered. It would seem that Lilian Harvey heard something she shouldn’t have and that her murder was a warning. Setting out to uncover the culprit, Kim spots a strange zigzag pattern on the wall above the bed where the body was found, which Lilian drew using her own blood as she lay dying.
Before Kim knows it, she uncovers evidence that there exists a dark society working in the shadows and she realizes the Nazis are not England’s only enemy.
When she meets the mysterious yet captivating Roland, aka Red Fox, they embark on a mission to solve the murder—all the while being drawn to each other and further into trouble.
But in order to expose this dangerous web of deceit, Kim must go back into the heart of occupied France—and into the hands of the enemy …
This atmospheric Second World War novel will grip you to the very end and is perfect for fans of Rhys Bowen, Jeffery Archer, Rory Clements, Gretta Mulrooney, Kate Quinn, and Lucinda Riley.

The narrator is monotone and stilted
Awful narration ruining a decent book. Robotic delivery makes the book extremely difficult to listen to, better to read the book

Ruined by the narration
How this narrator a) got the job and b) kept the job is the main mystery. Little to no editing or production failed to correct the strangely rushed robotic reading and appalling pronunciation eg ‘anna-theema’ for anathema and ‘Bowsh’ for Bosch. The story held my interest but was ruined by the narration.
