Publisher's Synopsis
1895 and a violent tide of political unrest is rising fast all over Europe. Inspector Thomas Pitt knows that they must find those responsible before England is overrun by reformists. When he finds himself in pursuit of a suspected terrorist, Pitt has no hesitation in following them to France. But events take a sinister turn when Narraway, Pitt's superior, is accused of involvement in the death of an Irish informant. Pitt's wife, Charlotte, determines to help Narraway clear his name. As Charlotte and Narraway depart for Ireland and Pitt is drawn deeper into the investigation in France, it becomes clear that outside forces have conspired to separate them. Can they make it back to England and stop the revolt before it's too late?
