A good atmospheric read set in the Fenlands of eastern England. Summer, 1976. A plane, from a US airbase, crashes on a farm in the Cambridgeshire Fens. Out of the flames walks young Maggie Bell, clutching a baby in her arms....Twenty seven years later, investigative journalist Philip Dryden, working for a local newspaper, is witness to Maggie Beck's deathbed confession. But some secrets are best kept secret, and what started out for Dryden as a small and curious story about the only survivor of an almost-forgotten plane crash soon escalates into a full-blown murder investigation, involving the transportation of illegal immigrants and pornography.
