A dead trainer. A drugged Thoroughbred. In the high-stakes world of Victorian horse racing, the truth lives under the skin... Newmarket Heath, 1887. To the public, the fatal gallop of legendary trainer Henry Ashmore was a tragic accident. A horse spooked by a drainage ditch, an aging rider losing his seat. Case closed. But Henry’s daughter, Nell Ashmore, doesn't read the public form book; she reads the horse. With a ledger behind her eyes and a unique, ancestral gift for reading an animal’s pulse by touch, Nell examines the four-year-old colt Domine's Pride.

When MI6 sends Evelyn Ainsworth back to Oslo, no one expects any complications, least of all Evelyn. With her identity locked down and her section classified, both her location and her mission are secure. Or so they thought.

With tensions between England and Norway rising, the Führer seizes the opportunity to send an invasion force north—straight into Norway.

Tensions are high across Europe in the beginning of May 1940. Hitler’s forces have overrun Norway, and it’s only a matter of time before his focus turns to France.

The MI6 agent’s goal is to get in, pick up a package, meet with her Soviet contact, and get out again as quickly as possible. But even the best laid plans can go awry.
