From the bestselling author of Longbourn, a gripping novel of one young woman's unraveling during the Blitz--a story of World War II intrigue, love, and danger - "[A] thrilling novel...atmospheric and memorable." --Emma Donoghue, bestselling author of Haven
It is 1940 and twenty-year-old Charlotte Richmond watches from her attic window as enemy planes fly over London. Still grieving her beloved brother, who never returned from France, she is trying to keep herself out of trouble: holding down a typist job at the Ministry of Information, sharing gin and confidences with her best friend, Elena, and dodging her overbearing father. On her way to work she often sees the boy who feeds the birds--a source of unexpected joy amid the rubble of the Blitz. But every day brings new scenes of devastation, and after yet another heartbreaking loss Charlotte has an uncanny sense of foreboding. Someone is stalking the darkness, targeting her friends. And now he's following her. As grief and suspicion consume her, Charlotte's nerves become increasingly frayed. She no longer knows whom to trust. She can't even trust herself . . . Utterly riveting and hypnotic, The Midnight News is a love story, a war story, and an unforgettable journey into the fragile mind and fierce heart of an extraordinary young woman.Author Biography
