		Given the masterful way Todd's Rutledge novels capture the horrors of trench warfare and the brutal slaughter's effect on those returning to civilian life, it's all the more surprising that his portrayal of the war and its scars here is superficial.
		Todd's many admirers would be advised to give this a pass and wait for the next entry in the Rutledge series.
		Todd has a proven record of well-written, intriguing mysteries that excel at capturing the world-weary, soul-draining experience that was WWI, and the effects, especially on the survivors.

		Todd's ear for dialogue is superb, and he effortlessly conjures up the harsh life of a simple farm community through his vivid characters.
		As with its predecessors, this novel is imbued with tragic sadness, and Rutledge's struggle with his own demons serves as a moving counterpoint to the searing pain of other characters trapped by circumstances or emotions beyond their control.
		Todd is particularly skilled at providing us a very good sense of place, well done dialogue and an interesting, developed cast of characters, each with their own secrets and motives.

		Todd's main original contribution is the addition of a historical setting (although one could argue that he is following Anne Perry here), which adds another layer of difficulty for the writer and interest for the reader.
