The first in the London Underground mystery series and set during the 2nd World War, not only was it a great story, I also learnt a number of things about the period which I was unaware of. As historical police procedural goes, this was one of the better ones. Each one of the 380 pages was a pleasant and interesting read. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
