Murder in Paris
April, 1945. In the wake of the Liberation, Paris feels very different to the city that blind veteran Frederick Rowlands remembers from the Great War. His visit this time is at the behest of MI5 agent Iris Barnes, who is on the hunt for traitors. The key to finding them is a young woman calling herself Clara Metzner - recently released from Ravensbrück - whose evidence will prove vital in tracking down the suspected French collaborators. Rowlands last met Clara in Berlin twelve years before, and now has the difficult task of confirming her identity, because Clara's harrowing experiences at the notorious concentration camp have changed her beyond all recognition. But then the investigation is derailed by a shocking death and circumstances that point to murder. Thrown into the unfamiliar world of Parisian high society, Rowlands must track down the killer and prevent further deaths - including his own - before it's too late.
