While the whine of the air raid sirens might no longer be rousing him from bed every night, a two-decade-old unsolved murder case will ensure Chief Inspector Mason of Erdington Police Station is about to suffer more sleepless nights.
Young Robert McFarlane's body was found outside the local church hall on 30th September 1923. But his cause of death was drowning, and he'd been missing for three days before his body was found. No one was ever arrested for the crime. No answers could ever be given to the grieving family. The unsolved case has haunted Mason ever since.
But the chance discovery of another victim, with worrying parallels, sets Mason and his constable, O'Rourke, on a journey that will take them back over twenty-five years. They will have the chance to finally solve the case while all around them, the uncertainty of war continues, impossible to ignore.
