    [synopsis] => In the uneasy peace following World War I, nurse Bess Crawford runs into trouble and treachery in Ireland-in this twelfth book in the New York Times bestselling mystery series.

The Great War has finally come to an end, but tensions remain high throughout Europe. In Ireland, no one has forgotten the bloody 1916 Easter Rising that fought to end British rule in the country. Bess's old friend, nurse Eileen Flynn, returns to her isolated Irish village where two factions continue to battle against each other. Eileen's time with the British army makes her a target for retaliation. Her missing cousin, who was active in the rising and is still being hunted by the British, is her only protection.
Despite concerns about her safety, Bess keeps her promise to her wartime friend and travels to Ireland to be part of Eileen's wedding party. But on her arrival, Bess discovers that the groom has gone missing. Then a body is fished from the sea. The villagers are hungry to see justice carried out-for wrongdoings new and old-and Eileen's protection is running out. But clearing her name may mean sacrificing another beloved friend's neck to the noose instead. Bess must unravel a dark, deceptive plot before someone she loves dies.
