The second book in the Lord Edward Corinth and Verity Browne series
SYNOPSIS: “Lord Edward Corinth returns to London after six months in New York to find his old sleuthing partner and friend, journalist Verity Browne, insisting he investigate a murder in Madrid. It is 1936 and Spain is about to erupt into civil war. Verity is now correspondent for a national newspaper and passionately committed to defending the Spanish Republic against the Fascist threat. Her lover, David Griffiths-Jones, a senior figure in the Communist Party, has been convicted of murder and Verity appeals to Edward to help save him from the firing squad, even though she knows he sees him as his rival in love.
So Lord Edward and Verity, attracted to each other but at odds politically, once more join in an awkward alliance to discover the truth. Political and physical dangers surround them – and there is no guarantee that justice will be done and murder avenged.”
