A Deceptive Devotion - A Lane Winslow Mystery, Book 6 (Unabridged)

The second instalment in the Lane Winslow mystery series; for fans of the Maisie Dobbs and Bess Crawford series.
On a snowy day in December 1946, Lane Winslow-a former British intelligence agent who&apos;s escaped to the rural Canadian community of King&apos;s Cove in pursuit of a tranquil life-is introduced to the local hot springs. While there she overhears nearby patrons speaking Russian. When one of those patrons is found dead in the change room, Lane&apos;s linguistic and intelligence experience is of immeasurable value to the local police force in solving the murder.
The investigation points to the Soviet Union, where Stalin&apos;s purges are eliminating enemies, and the reach of Stalin&apos;s agent snakes all the way into a harmless Doukhobor community. Winslow&apos;s complicated relationship with the local police inspector, Darling, is intensified by the perils of the case and by the discovery of her own father&apos;s death during the war.
The case comes to a frantic and shocking end with a perilous nighttime journey along treacherous snow-covered roads.
