Spring 1940. With Britons facing what has become known as the Bore War—nothing much seems to have happened yet—Maisie Dobbs is asked to investigate the disappearance of a local lad, a young apprentice craftsman working on a hush-hush government contract.

As Maisie's inquiry reveals a possible link to the London underworld, the country is bracing for a possible enemy invasion amid news of the British expeditionary force stranded along the French coast. And another mother is worried about a missing son—but this time the boy in question is one beloved by Maisie.
