A lone German bomber crosses the east coast of Britain on a
moonless night in the long, hot summer of 1940. The pilot picks up
the silver thread of a river and, following it to his target, drops
his bomb over Cambridge's rail yards. The shell falls short of its
mark and lands in a neighbourhood of terraced streets on the edge
of the city's medieval centre. DI Eden Brooke is first on the scene
and discovers the body of an elderly woman, Nora Wylde, in a house
on Elm Street, two fingers on her left hand severed, in what looks
like a brutal attempt by looters to steal her rings. When the next
day Nora's teenage granddaughter Peggy, a munitions worker, is
reported missing, Brooke realises there is more to the situation
than meets the eye.
