Publisher's Summary
It is only when some dramatic Byzantine pearls are loaned to the Museum that Severine's poise is dashed and the tightly controlled life she's built around herself is shattered. Her shocking revelation of their provenance sets off a frenzied hunt for Nazi Ruda Mayek.
Mossad's interest is triggered and one of its most skilled agents comes out of retirement to join the hunt, while the one person who can help her - the solicitor handling the Pearls - is bound by client confidentiality. As Severine follows Mayek's trail, there is still one lifelong secret for her to reveal - and one for her to discover.
From the snowy woodlands outside Prague to the Tuilieries of Paris and the heather-covered moors of Yorkshire comes a confronting and heart-stopping novel that explores whether love and hope can ever overpower atrocity in a time of war and hate.

Fabulous!! Totally invested from the first page
Katie Sobey is a amazing narrator, calm but succinct with her accents and nuances.
Fiona McIntoshs in depth plots and historical narratives are enjoyable and addictive.
Highly recommend if you are a fan of this genre.

Riveting! Graphic! Terrible and beautiful!
Fiona McIntosh has delivered again.
Her research is impeccable, her plot is heart stopping. The story line at times is excruciating but finally the protagonist gets revenge but not quite how one is led to imagine it will be.
I had tears a few times during this read but also joy!
Well done Fiona and also to Katy Sobey

Hard to put down.
A well crafted and well written story line.
Story moves seamlessly from WWII Europe to 1960's England and Paris with many changes in the plot.

Best performance by Katie Scobie yet!
The narration of this confronting but inspiring story was truly amazing. Thoroughly enjoyable on every level.
I will struggle to listen to another Fiona McIntosh story by a different narrator. Katie made the characters come to life.
