When a body washes ashore near the estate, Bridey is horrified to realize this is not a victim of war, but of a brutal killing. Chasing ten young children through the winding paths of the estate grounds might have soothed Bridey’s anxieties and grief-if Greenway were not situated so near the English Channel and the rising aggressions of the war. The biggest mystery might be the other nurse, Gigi, who is like no one Bridey has ever met. Greenway is a beautiful home full of riddles: wondrous curios not to be touched, restrictions on rooms not to be entered, and a generous library, filled with books about murder. Prisca’s Hospital in London has led to her dismissal as a nurse trainee, and her only chance for redemption is a position in the countryside caring for children evacuated to safety from the Blitz. Bridey Kelly has come to Greenway House-the beloved holiday home of Agatha Christie-in disgrace.
