A master forger. A promise of freedom. A dangerous game.

''A page-turner: morally complex and beautifully written'' Leonora Nattrass, bestselling author of Blue Water

In post-war Flanders, Adelais de Wolf''s family is falling apart: her mother lost to religious devotion, her father to alcohol. But with the death of a beloved uncle, Adelais finds herself in receipt of an unexpected legacy: a shuttered house in a rundown district and its contents – contents that hold the promise of independence and wealth.

All that is required is application, nerve, and a willingness to break the law.

Soon she is caught in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with fanatical and brutal detective Major de Smet of the Federal Gendarmerie. Could it be that her new life comes at too high a price?

''Intriguing, pacy, [with] a host of memorable characters… [it] captures everyone’s heart'' Virginia Baily, author of Early One Morning
