This was absolutely brilliant, I couldn't put it down.
Emma has led a chequered life, from living the high life as a diplomat's wife to becoming a spy.
But the one thing that has always Haunted her since very young was the tragic death of her brother Hugh, always having looked up to him she finds it hard to cope with his death.
Now an elderly woman she is terminally ill so embarks on one last journey along with her grandson Phil to see the places of her past.
But this is not the full truth and by searching the past she puts both their lives in danger as some people have very long memories and are willing to kill to keep secrets.
This was so different, it showed the human side of the characters and the working, undercover aspect of their natures and was a fascinating twist being set during the war and also the seventies and with an elderly lady as a former spy.
A cleverly thought out plot and great characters make this a refreshing spy novel.
