Winner of the 1945 Red Badge Prize for Best Unpublished Mystery, Elinor Chamberlain spins a mesmerizing tale of a Olivia Brander, a young portrait painter in Spain. When the patron who commissioned a series of portraits is murdered, against the backdrop of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, it's up to Olivia -- with the help of an agent of a little-publicized branch of the U.S. government -- to unravel the mystery. Here is a stark and fearful story of grim tragedy, unforgetable characters, and terrifying suspense!
