Having heard nothing since, she's travelling from their home in Wicklow to find answers.Harry learns Kearney was part of a four-man carrier crew fighting near Caen. The burned-out vehicle was found near a French chateau, with two charred corpses and a third who appears to have been executed.But there is no sign of William Kearney.Reports of Nazi atrocities nearby suggest the men were victims of the ruthless Nazi machine. But things aren't adding up for Tennant. Why was Kearney's body never found, and why was an SS officer discovered with the missing man's ID disks? Harry's superior, Jekyll, wants the death blamed on the SS and the case quickly wrapped up. But the more Harry digs, the more curious he becomes. Yet finding answers only seems to raise more questions.And it's not long before Tennant find himself in grave danger...
