England, May 1940. A village publican asks Maisie to find his missing son, an apprentice painter working on a confidential government contract. The young man’s silence may be connected to dangerous chemicals, theft and London criminals who are profiting from the rapid expansion of wartime industry.
As Maisie follows the case, the German advance traps the British Expeditionary Force on the French coast and Billy Beale waits for news of his own son. The private disappearance and the evacuation from Dunkirk converge, forcing Maisie to work through official secrecy and criminal intimidation while families across Britain wait to learn who will return.
