War has been declared, and Detective Inspector Silas Quinn finds
himself drawn into a disturbing murder case where the only clue is
a mysterious white feather. London, 1914. The declaration of war
with Germany has made the capital a dark, uncertain place, rife
with fear and suspicion. As the pressure on young men to enlist
grows stronger, Pastor Cardew holds a rally at his church.
Unfortunately, it ends in humiliation for Felix Simpkins when he
receives a dreaded white feather - the ultimate sign of cowardice.
Meanwhile, DI Silas Quinn returns to New Scotland Yard after his
recent sick leave to find the Special Crimes Department has been
closed and his team absorbed into CID. But when a body is
discovered in Wormwood Scrubs the day after Cardew's rally, a white
feather placed in its mouth, Quinn finds himself unable to take a
back seat in the investigation. Was the murderer really a foreign
spy . . . or someone closer to home?
