In the middle of a war, the first casualty is truth.

Jayne Sinclair is back and this time she's investigating her own family history.

For years, Jayne has avoided researching the past of her own family. There are just too many secrets she would prefer to stay hidden. Then she is forced to face up to the biggest secret of all; her father is still alive. Even worse, he is in prison for the cold-blooded killing of an old civil servant. A killing supposedly motivated by the betrayal and death of his mother decades before.

Was he guilty or innocent?

Was her grandmother really a spy?

And who betrayed her to the Germans?

Jayne uses all her genealogical and police skills to investigate the world of the SOE and of secrets hidden in the dark days of World War 2. A world that takes her into a battle with herself, her conscience and her own family.

This is the sixth Jayne Sinclair genealogical mystery, but it can be read and enjoyed as a stand-alone novel.
