The three-year hiatus was worth the wait! This has to be one of Perry's finest Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novels. Perry introduces a new depth to familiar characters, has us traversing Western Europe, and cleverly entwines history within the story.

Special Branch must foil an internationl plot, but they have to do it without Victor Narraway and Thomas Pitt. Pitt chases the assassin of his would-be informant to France's northwest coast. Narraway, dismissed for embezzlement, travels to Ireland hoping to discover who betrayed him. Meanwhile, Charlotte takes great risks to save her family.

Will Special Branch survive? Will the British realm endure? Can Narraway recover his job? Can Pitt save his job? Will this be the end of Charlotte and Thomas Pitt? Only time and subtle sleuthing will tell.
