Product Overview
In postwar London, a wealthy and world-weary young bachelor drifts through dinners, nightclubs, and ballrooms—until he falls for a beautiful Russian refugee whose sadness seems to belong to another world. Their fragile happiness is shattered the moment a scarred stranger appears at a dance. That same night, the young woman vanishes, leaving behind a sealed letter, a hurried midnight cab ride, and a plea that the police not be called.
Determined to find her, he follows a trail that leads from grand Mayfair houses to shadowy garages and rented rooms, from coded messages to midnight appointments. Every clue draws him deeper into the world of exiled aristocrats, Bolshevik agents, and old terrors carried across Europe. Someone is lying, someone is watching, and a murderous secret is waiting to surface.
