“A novel with eerie echoes of the inquests in the London’s July 7th bombings, this is a fictional reworking of one of the worst civilian disasters of the Second World War when 173 people were trampled to death in a rush to take shelter in Bethnal Green during an air raid. As magistrate Laurence Dunne hears evidence, he realises such loss of life cannot be dismissed as an ‘accident of war. But is Britain ready for the truth – and its sinister implications? Francis Kane has found a terrific human story.”
