About this audiobook
A country at war. Friends in trouble. Lily may be off the bomb-blasted streets, but the danger's not over…
England, 1941. Reunited briefly with her husband-to-be before he returns to fighting, Lily Baker now finds her mundane army office work dreary. But when her boss asks her to keep watch on the happenings at the depot, she quickly suspects a new weapons supplier of fraud.
As she trains her sharp eye on the potential cheat, she agrees to help an unmarried colleague with an unexpected pregnancy. But when, without evidence, Lily is accused of being the one with child, she faces hard decisions.
Suspecting a traitor in their midst, can she uncover a conspiracy while also protecting herself?
The captivating fourth book in The Lily Baker Series. If you like well-written characters, pulse-stopping drama, and thrilling twists and turns, then you’ll adore this compelling adventure.
