"During the mass evacuation from London in September 1939, a little girl vanishes without a trace and Josephine struggles with the chaos and uncertainty of war"-- Provided by publisher
September, 1939. Mass evacuations take place across Britain, as thousands of children leave London and the dangers of the Blitz for the safety of the countryside. But when two little girls step off the train and go missing, the reality of separation becomes more urgent and more deadly for the families they left behind in the city. As a cloud of suspicion falls across the small Suffolk village Josephine Tey has come to love, the conflict becomes personal, and events take a dark and sinister turn. -- adapted from jacket
