Mother, sister, justice: choose one.
Lily Smith, a policewoman in 1920s London, would rather be dancing to jazz in a club. Now a straightforward surveillance task has got her tangled up in a web of lies, and exposing certain truths could end her career.
With enemies in the shadows, but good friends all around, it's a race to solve the case of the missing diamonds. And when she discovers who really did it, will she have the courage to reveal the whole truth, or can she find a way to save all the people that she cares about and still uphold the law?
