A murder mystery featuring Lord Edward Corinth and
Verity Browne It is February 1939 and Lord Edward Corinth embarks on his
most important investigation yet. It is clear that Britain
will soon be at war and will depend on Winston Churchill's
leadership. But when MI5 learns that an enemy agent has
been dispatched to assassinate Churchill, Edward is tasked
with identifying the killer. His first port of call is the
Astors' country house, Cliveden, the base of those who are
prepared to go to any lengths to avert war. Verity Browne is also at Cliveden, though she despises the
so-called Cliveden Set. Communist Party bosses have
ordered her to get close to another guest, Joseph Kennedy,
the American Ambassador, who is convinced that Britain
could never win a war against militant Germany. Then the Ambassador's sons discover a man's body in
Cliveden's grounds, Verity recognizes him to be a fellow
journalist and as war looms, Edward and Verity enter a
tense race against time to identify the assassin.
