1941. London is ablaze, and so is the mystery.
As bombs rain down during the Blitz, a woman is discovered dead in the ruins, a delicate locket hidden beneath her body. Inside lies the photograph of a soldier and a coded message that could alter the course of the war.
In a city gripped by fear and fractured by secrets, investigative reporter Ottilie Divine follows a trail of deception leading to a clandestine alliance and a dangerous network of spies operating in the shadows of wartime London. Each clue is buried beneath rubble, silence, and betrayal, and every answer carries the risk of deadly exposure.
Working alongside Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson, thoughtfully adapted to wartime Britain, Ottilie must navigate blackouts, bombed streets, and shifting loyalties as the truth threatens to surface.
The locket holds more than memories.
It holds power.
Book Two of The Ottilie Divine Mysteries, The Locket Code is a WWII historical mystery rich in Blitz-era atmosphere, wartime espionage, and classic detective intrigue. Perfect for readers of Jacqueline Winspear, Rhys Bowen, and Laurie R. King, and for fans of Foyle’s War, Downton Abbey, and intelligent Sherlock Holmes adaptations.
