Armistice Day, 1940. The nation remembers the Great War while a new and
harrowing conflict rumbles on. The Blitz Detective, John Jago, must set
aside his own painful memories to investigate a suspicious death in
Pimlico, south-west London. The body of a young man has been discovered
in an Anderson shelter, with two white poppies in his pocket.
As the investigation progresses, Jago and his assistant, DC Cradock,
find themselves knee-deep in Pimlico's shady underworld and connections
with Mosley's fascist party. It will take all their skills to uncover
the truth behind the young man's brutal death.
