In the spring of 1940, as Britons grappled with the enigmatic Bore War, a period marked by minimal activity, Maisie Dobbs, a skilled private investigator, was tasked with unraveling the enigmatic disappearance of a young apprentice craftsman engaged in a covert government contract. As Maisie's diligent inquiry unveiled a potential connection to the shadowy underworld of London, the nation anxiously prepared for the imminent threat of an enemy invasion, fueled by reports of the British expeditionary force becoming stranded along the French coast. Amidst this backdrop, another mother's heart sank as her beloved son went missing. However, this time, the boy in question held a special place in Maisie's affections, adding an emotional layer to the already complex investigation.
