About this product
Product Information
Though the Armistice has been signed and the guns silenced, the suffering has not ended. Many soldiers carry wounds that are still agonizingly raw. Back in England, battlefield Nurse Bess Crawford has been reassigned to a clinic for the severely injured. Among these patients are Welsh soldiers who will return home to their valley utterly changed. Bess knows the future will be difficult for them and their families. She fears that peace will do what war could not-take their lives. A few weeks after the soliders return home, their officer, Captain Hugh Williams, writes to describe their despair, and his own at trying to save his men. But the Army and the clinic can do nothing. So Bess quietly travels to the bleak coal-mining village in Wales. But she is too late. His men now dead, Captain Williams has fled the valley. Fearing that he intends to kill himself, Bess follows him to an isolated, storm-battered peninsula-a harsh and forgotten place where sinister secrets and death seem to go hand in hand. Deserted by her frightened driver in the middle of the night, Bess is stranded among strangers suspicious of outsiders. She quickly discovers these villagers are hiding something, and she's learned too much to be allowed to leave. Why is there no Constable out here Why were two bodies that mysteriously washed ashore buried in unmarked graves without an inquiry or even a prayer Captain Williams and his brother's widow, Rachel, are her only allies, and Bess must take care not to put them at risk as she tries to find answers. But there is a murderer here who is driven to kill again and again.

Reviews
Admirable, courageous and occasionally reckless, Bess ranks among the best of fictional amateur sleuths. [Todd] again creates a thought-provoking novel that evokes the terrors and suspicions of war., The atmosphere of the claustrophobic community Bess is trapped in is palpable as Todd (the mother-and-son writing team of Caroline and Charles Todd) expertly ratchets up the suspense., Todd's meticulous research... illustrates the toll the war has taken on the battle-weary military as well as the nurses and doctors, the sacrifices of the residents, [and] the citizens' valiant struggle to maintain a sense of normalcy. . . . . A vivid and personal look at WWI., The latest Crawford mystery is rich in character and period detail, with a solidly constructed story that should keep readers immersed in the action., Praise for No Shred of Evidence: "It's that melancholy tone, the legacy of the trenches, that gives Todd's polite rural mystery such uncommon depth.", A superb whodunit--just when you think you have it figured out, Todd throws a curve--and a moving evocation of a world at war., Harsh period attitudes toward traumatic stress and the exhaustion of a long war add poignancy to Todd's satisfying puzzle of identity and inheritance., The novel has a distinctly gothic feel to it: remote locale, harsh landscape, stormy weather, mysterious villagers--and the sense that something truly evil is hiding, perhaps in plain sight.
