The War Widow
THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
The war may be officially over, but journalist Billie Walker’s search for a missing young immigrant man will plunge her right back into the danger and drama she thought she’d left behind in Europe in this thrilling tale of courage and secrets set in glamorous postwar Sydney.
A cracking thriller, with a marvellous, strong, flamboyant heroine. Loved it.
– Joanne Harris, award-winning author of Chocolat
A terrific read.
– Lynda La Plante, award-winning author of Prime Suspect
Rich period detail and a fierce, feminist heroine distinguish this stylish twist on the classic 1940s detective novel.
![What do you see? Vintage heroine 💪🏻 or femme fatale 🔪? Or perhaps, like my PI Billie Walker, none of us can be so easily pigeonholed.
Today’s mood, complete with Fighting Red lipstick 💄 as I dive deep into writing my second Billie Walker 1940s mystery...
