A Bespoke Murder : The compelling WWI murder mystery series Paperback / softback

Part of the Home Front Detective series

Paperback / softback

Description

May, 1915. While thousands of Britons fight in the tranches, a severely depleted police force remains behind to keep the home front safe.

In London, the sinking of the Lusitania sparks an unprecedented wave of anti-German riots and arson attacks across the city.

Among the victims is the immigrant tailor Jacob Stein, found dead in his burnt-out shop. Detective Inspector Harvey Marmion and Sergeant Joe Keedy must take on this case of cover-ups and contradictions and track down Jacob's killer - a hunt which carries them from the crime-ridden streets of wartime London to the chaos of the front line.

But is the murder simply the result of a tragic excess of wartime hysteria, or perhaps a more premeditated crime?
