    On a sunny afternoon in late June 1914, Cambridge professor Joseph Reavley learns that his parents have died in an automobile crash. Josephs brother, an officer in the Intelligence Service, reveals that their father had been en route to London with a mysterious secret document allegedly possessing the power to disgrace England and destroy the civilized world. Now, that explosive paper has vanished, and Joseph is left to wonder: How had it fallen into the hands of his father, a quiet countryman? But Joseph is soon burdened with a second tragedy: the shocking murder of his most gifted student, who was loved and admired by everyone. Or so it appeared. And as Englands seamless peace begins to crack, the distance between the murder of an Austrian archduke and the death of a brilliant student grows shorter every day.

    In the realm of historical fiction, Anne Perry shines brightly. Following her acclaimed Victorian mysteries, she presents a bestselling series set during World War I, contrasting the serene English countryside with the brutal realities of war. By April 1915, chaplain Joseph Reavley is tending to soldiers amidst the horrors of trench warfare, which is decimating England’s youth. During a rescue mission into no-man’s-land, Joseph discovers the body of Eldon Prentice, a controversial war correspondent and nephew of General Owen Cullingford. Prentice, disliked for his attempts to sway public opinion against the war, has been killed, seemingly not by the enemy but by one of his own. Joseph suspects he may know the killer, while his sister Judith, General Cullingford’s driver, has her own troubling doubts. Meanwhile, their brother Matthew, an intelligence officer in London, is pursuing a shadowy figure known as the Peacemaker, who aims to undermine support for the war and is believed to be at the center of a plot to reshape the world. The Peacemaker operates with lethal freedom, his influence reaching from the quiet lanes of Cambridgeshire to the battlefields of Ypres and Gallipoli. In this gripping series, Perry delves into the violent legacy of conflict and the profound impact on those who lived through it, crafting a taut and inspiring narrative.
