Description
Six months after her husband's sudden death, Leonora Galloway embarks on a journey to France with her daughter Penelope. As they visit the battlefields of WW1, she uncovers a surprising revelation about her father's date of death - one that challenges everything she thought she knew about him. This discovery sets off a chain of events that spans three generations of an aristocratic family, revealing secrets and lies that have been hidden for decades. Penelope must piece together the truth behind a murder left unsolved for over half a century, navigating a complex web of war, loss, greed, deception, and vice. As she delves deeper into her family's past, Leonora and Penelope uncover a tangled history that threatens to upend their understanding of themselves and their place in the world.
