Is airship travel safe? Not if there’s a killer on board. Retired spy Augusta Peel would rather be repairing old books, but Scotland Yard persuades her to help with a surveillance operation. Despite a hatred of heights, she must work undercover on an airship. The trip takes a turn when a corpse is found in a cabin. Augusta now has a new challenge on her hands. Can she identify the murderer? It’s tricky finding a motive among the sophisticated passengers – many are sophisticated liars too. Events escalate when the killer strikes again. The airship murderer is covering their tracks. Augusta faces a race against time before the culprit tracks her down and silences her too. A stylish, atmospheric tale of secrets and murder in 1920s London. Perfect for fans of Jacqueline Winspear, Rhys Bowen, and Agatha Christie.
