England and the Western Front, 1916. Joseph Reavley returns home wounded and becomes involved in a murder whose evidence points towards espionage and sabotage. His recovery brings the hidden work of the home front into contact with the suffering he has witnessed among soldiers.

Matthew’s pursuit of the Peacemaker intensifies, while Judith and Hannah confront different forms of wartime service and loss. As the Battle of the Somme transforms the scale of casualties, the Reavleys discover that political conspiracy can exploit grief as effectively as military defeat.
