*WINNER OF THE HWA GOLD CROWN AWARD FOR BEST HISTORICAL FICTION*

*SHORTLISTED FOR THE CWA HISTORICAL DAGGER AWARD*

Paris, Friday 14th June 1940.

The day the Nazis march into Paris, making headlines around the globe.

Paris police detective Eddie Giral - a survivor of the last World War - watches helplessly on as his world changes forever.

But there is something he still has control over. Finding whoever is responsible for the murder of four refugees. The unwanted dead, who no one wants to claim.

To do so, he must tread carefully between the Occupation and the Resistance, between truth and lies, between the man he is and the man he was.

All the while becoming whoever he must be to survive in this new and terrible order descending on his home...

Frustrating

Great potential, and the author can write. But the plot is tedious, repetitive and confusing. But I did love the subplot/thematic device of the bees.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
