Summary
Brought to you by Puffin.
The second thrilling mystery starring a new generation of the Detective Society, from the million-copy-bestselling author of Murder Most Unladylike: Robin Stevens.
April 1941. Britain is at war, and a secret agency called the Ministry of Unladylike Activity is training up children as spies - because grown-ups always underestimate them.
Enter May, Eric and Nuala: courageous, smart, and the Ministry's newest recruits. They have travelled to London for spy training, and are staying on a quiet street close to the Ministry, home to an unlikely collection of people thrown together by the war.
One day, while exploring the bombed-out house at the end of the street, they discover something that should not be there. Something that was not there when the Blitz wreckage was first combed through. Something that has been placed there recently. A body...
Could this be the missing Ministry spy that Daisy Wells is on a dangerous mission in France to find? Or could it be someone else - someone a resident of the street wanted silenced . . . ?

Amazing
My daughter and her best friend absolutely adore all of her books this one in particular.The book is such a thriller and just fits with all of
Robin Stevens earlier books.The narrators gave the story a perfect dramatic and mysterious
performance. They absolutely loved the end where
Hazel is stationed at Bletchley Park. They cannot wait for the next book.

Great mix of history and story
Very engaging and kept us on our toes. Was enjoyed by a mother and daughter duo equally.

Great audiobook
The story was very good, and I enjoyed the appearance of characters in the murder most unladylike series as adults. The solution to the murder was slightly less interesting than the rest of the books, however nevertheless I enjoyed listening to it. Would recommend to any audiobook listener who loves crime and history.

Brilliant sequel
The Body in the Blitz was a great sequel that really delved deeper into the characters and their personalities. In particular, this book showed more of Nuala. Beautifully read by Samantha Shortall, definitely recommend the audiobook for a very subversive experience!
