A FAMILY TORN APART BY WAR. A TRAITOR IN THEIR MIDST. World War Il comes to Farleigh Place, the ancestral home of Lord Westerham and his five daughters, when a soldier with a failed parachute falls to his death on the estate. After his uniform and possessions raise suspicions, MIS operative and family friend Ben Cresswell is covertly tasked with determining if the man was a German spy. The assignment also offers Ben the chance to be near Lord Westerham's middle daughter Pamela, whom he furtively loves. But Pamela has her own secret: she has taken a job at Bletchley Park, the British code-breaking facility.
