Among them is estranged Farthing scion Lucy Kahn, who can't understand why her and her husband David's presence was so forcefully requested. Then the country-house idyll is interrupted when the eminent Sir James Thirkie is found murdered - with a yellow Star of David pinned to his chest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLucy begins to realize that her Jewish husband is about to be framed for the crime - an outcome that would be convenient for altogether too many of the various political machinations underway in Parliament in the coming week. But whoever's behind the murder, and the frame-up, didn't reckon on the principal investigator from Scotland Yard being a man with very private reasons for sympathizing with outcasts and underdogs - and prone to look beyond the obvious as a result.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the trap slowly shuts on Lucy and David, they begin to see a way out - a way fraught with peril in a darkening world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Walton, Jo","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":44515705028898,"sku":"9781472112972","price":11.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/products\/walton-jo-farthing-9781472112972-40660320125218.jpg?v=1677183098","url":"https:\/\/chaptersbookstore.pro\/products\/farthing","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
