The year is 1936, and the clouds of war are gathering over Europe. But life in a small English village is peaceful and charming, especially to Sarah Causeley, the new governess at Hallam House. Then someone wages a hate campaign against the Hallams and a killer leaves more than croquet mallets on the lawn.

Review
"This is writing of real distinction...a subtle and nuanced book that deserves to be read as much for its sense of period and probing of motives as for its cleverly managed plot"
Synopsis
Set in the pre-war years of 1936-1941, this thriller follows Sarah Causley as she takes up the appointment of nursery governess at the Hallam household. Soon after her arrival, a murder takes place and it is only during the London blitz that she discovers the truth about it.
