Summary

World War II comes to Farleigh Place, the ancestral home of Lord Westerham and his five daughters, when a soldier with a failed parachute falls to his death on the estate. After his uniform and possessions raise suspicions, MI5 operative and family friend Ben Cresswell is covertly tasked with determining if the man is a German spy. The assignment also offers Ben the chance to be near Lord Westerham's middle daughter, Pamela, whom he furtively loves. But Pamela has her own secret: She has taken a job at Bletchley Park, the British code-breaking facility.

As Ben follows a trail of spies and traitors, which may include another member of Pamela's family, he discovers that some within the realm have an appalling, history-altering agenda. Can he, with Pamela's help, stop them before England falls?

Inspired by the events and people of World War II, writer Rhys Bowen crafts a sweeping and riveting saga of class, family, love, and betrayal.

I was looking forward to listening to this book during lockdown whilst ironing, washing up, house cleaning etc... as I am a big fan of Audiobooks. Unfortunately, I've only just started and the narration is diabolical. I'm not sure I can carry on with this farce. Like another commentator I am rating the rest purely out of frustration as I'm only at the beginning of the book, but having just listened to beautiful performances of other books by other narrators, this one is putting me right off. Absolutely awful!

Deplorable performance
