Bryan Hale is a damaged man. The stresses of combat flying in England's summer skies during the Battle of Britain, and night-fighting in the icy darkness of the Blitz, together with the loss of friends and a shattered heart, have left him broken and grounded. Fortress Malta, and the unrelenting Nazi siege that aims to grind it away, will be the furnace that forges him anew.

As Hitler prepares to invade Poland, an underfunded MI5 struggles to contain the German and Russian spies who are flocking to England to recruit sympathetic British agents. The section’s biggest challenge, however, lies with fascist aristocrats and several Parliament MPs who support Nazi Germany’s foreign policy and its leader Adolf Hitler. Some of them, including Sir Oswald Mosley, are planning for a revolution if Prime Minister Chamberlain declares war on the Third Reich.

In Singapore, a Welsh-Australian nurse, Nesta, has enlisted to tend to Allied troops. But as the island falls to the Japanese she joins the terrified cargo of people, including the heartbroken Norah, crammed aboard the Vyner Brooke merchant ship. Only two days later, they are bombarded from the air off the coast of Indonesia, and in a matter of hours, the Vyner Brooke lies broken on the seabed.

For the people on the rugged Irish island of Winding Gale, life has always been hard. Now in the wake of the second World War, the island is dying, the young taken away by death or the appeal of better lives elsewhere, leaving behind only a handful of adults. But on the night the men of the island disappear while fishing in uncharted waters, the women are forced into a conflict with something both new and unfathomably old. A strange greenish mist rolls in, cutting off the island from the mainland. Spiral symbols appear in the sand, fashioned from dead fish and stones.

London, 1942. A killer going by the name of "Crimson Jack" is stalking the wartime streets of London, murdering women on the exact dates of the infamous Jack the Ripper killings of 1888. Has the Ripper returned from the grave? Is the self-styled Crimson Jack a descendant of the original Jack—or merely a madman obsessed with those killings? In desperation Scotland Yard turns to Sherlock Holmes. Surely he is the one man who can sift fact from legend to track down Crimson Jack. As Holmes and Watson tread the blacked-out streets of London, death waits just around the corner.

Ma la spensieratezza dell'infanzia è destinata a soccombere sotto il peso della Storia. Sullo sfondo di un'Italia divisa tra due guerre, quella ufficiale degli eserciti e quella clandestina dei partigiani, per Bianca l'unica possibilità di sopravvivere è rendersi autonoma e imparare a contare solo su sé stessa, ma per riuscirci deve mettere in discussione ogni verità, ogni affetto e ogni ricordo che credeva immutabile.
