Fiction
On a March night in 1943, on the steps of a London Tube
station, 173 people die in a crowd seeking shelter from what
seemed to be another air raid. When the devastated
neighborhood demands an inquiry, the job falls to magistrate
Laurence Dunne. In this beautifully crafted novel, Jessica Francis Kane
paints a vivid portrait of London at war. As Dunne
investigates, he finds the truth to be precarious, even
damaging. When he is forced to reflect on his report several
decades later, he must consider whether the course he chose
was the right one. The Report is a provocative commentary on
the way all tragedies are remembered and endured.
