When her best friend is murdered, Pauline Riddell finds she must take the law into her own hands for the police are on the wrong track.

It's northern England, 1953, rationing is still in place and the Cold War is hotting up. Her fiancé is out in Korea, where thankfully the war is winding down, and she's just setting out in adult work life at a local armament factory.

The police think they've caught her friend's killer, Pauline is sure they're wrong. Soon, as she investigates and pressures the police into more action, she finds the killer wants her gone and the police suspect she did it.  Can she catch the killer before she faces the same deadly fate as her friend or hang for killing her?
