Description
Two murders, one investigation, no leads – and a web of lies.
Lily Smith is treading a tightrope between maintaining the expected standards of dignity demanded of women in 1920s London and being an effective police constable. Things get more difficult when she's embroiled in the tragic death of a young woman at the house of a prominent politician.
Inspector Mackintosh is misogynistic, lecherous and brash but he is happy to use Lily's connections in the upper class world – while it suits him. She is delighted to be able to investigate but gutted when she's dropped from the case as quickly as she was taken on.
And then the case itself is swept away in favour of a far more important one.
All lives are important to Lily and the death of the young girl weighs heavily on her mind. She can't let it drop. She makes a choice between morality and her career.
Meanwhile her friend Nell is being conned by a smooth businessman and her mother is facing up to her disowned daughter, Bea. Lily wants to help everyone at the same time as solving the case, and it all collides in a desperate night time pursuit across London where she has no choice but to throw herself on the mercy of a known criminal.
To win justice for the dead, what will she have to lose?
