Book excerpt: In war torn London, 1941, fourteen-year-old Ruth Goldberg and her two younger siblings, Gabi and Hannah, survive the terrifying bombing of their family home. They believe their parents are dead - but unbeknownst to them, their father, Joe, survives and is taken to hospital with amnesia. Four years on, Ruth, stumbles across a newspaper photo of a celebrated pianist and is struck by the resemblance to her father. Desperate for evidence she sends him a letter, and as the pianist's dormant memories emerge, his past unravels, revealing his true identity - as her beloved father, Joe. But their reconciliation is short lived when he stops contact and disappears. Ruth sets out to track him down, visiting the parents of his beautiful new wife for clues, only to find herself plunged into an aristocratic world of sinister dark secrets where she must use stealth to stay alive.
