A Nazi war criminal. A British aristocrat. A decades old murder mystery that could rock the nation.
A European arrest warrant has been issued for Dieter Naumann who's been living as Dr. Gerald Edwards in the Derbyshire town of Glossop since the end of the second world war. He's recognised by an elderly Polish visitor as the Nazi soldier who murdered her parents and half of the rest of her home village as German troops were advancing across Poland in 1939.
But how did he gain a UK identity that has protected him for all these years?
Why did Lady Eleanor Harding, also now in her nineties, give him sanctuary during the war years? The two of them remained lovers for seventy years despite being married to other people but was that their only connection?
And why does a Salford based social worker called Paul Foster who's nursing his dying father suddenly become of interest to Naumann and Lady Harding? And Paul has his own problems dealing with a soldier who's returned from active service a very different man.
DCI Sara Hoyland and her team unravel a mystery going back decades involving devastating family secrets that once led to a gross miscarriage of justice but which finally solve two more murder mysteries that have remained unsolved for years.
But despite the solving of historical crimes the repercussions not only send shock waves through two families today but they also threaten to expose wrongdoing at the height of the British establishment
