Black Out

This stunning wartime thriller "repeatedly brings to mind le Carre--for its elegance and style, its intricate, suspenseful plot" (Scott Turow). 1944 London: Children playing on a bomb site make a grisly discovery: a neatly severed arm. When more body parts appear, Sergeant Frederick Troy, a thinking man's cop, soon traces clues to a conspiracy that reaches to the very top of the Allied High Command.
