A master forger. A promise of freedom. A dangerous game. 'A page-turner: morally complex and beautifully written' Leonora Nattrass, bestselling author of Blue Water 'Original and thoughtful' Peter Hitchens, The Lamp In post-war Flanders, Adelais de Wolf's family is falling apart: her mother lost to religious devotion, her father to alcohol.

All that is required is application, nerve, and a willingness to break the law. Soon she is caught in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with fanatical and brutal detective Major de Smet of the Federal Gendarmerie. Could it be that her new life comes at too high a price?
