March, 1940 James Given has left his job as an inspector in England and moved with his wife Rachel to start a new life in France. But when a local woman, Lisette Perron, dies under suspicious circumstances, Given comes out of retirement to investigate the possible murder. What had first appeared to be a tragic cycling accident seems to be something more sinister. As James begins to question the locals, it becomes apparent a spy is in hiding nearby. And with the Second World War intensifying and the terror of the Nazi’s an ever-present threat, Given is unsure of who he can trust.
