She is putting her past - her memories of nursing in the Crimean war - behind her. But when Jacob Harrow, a journalist with ties to Crimea, is found brutally killed, Gemma is pulled into the investigation. Police inspector Sebastian Bell works alone. But when all signs point towards a dark secret Harrow brought back from the war, he realizes he needs Gemma's help to untangle the mystery. But raking up the past has devastating consequences when Gemma's friend, another nurse from Crimea, is found murdered in her boarding house... As dark betrayals come tumbling out, Gemma and Sebastian are on a dangerous race to uncover the truth.
