Naturally, she has to investigate what went wrong in order to get herself out of trouble. One of the things that makes the Bess Crawford series so interesting is the way that Bess manages to get herself into trouble. She’s going to solve this mysterious puzzle, but righting an injustice and saving her honor may just cost Bess her life. Suddenly, the moral implications of what has happened-that a patient in her charge has committed murder-become more important to Bess than her own future. But the elusive soldier has disappeared again and even the Shropshire police have lost him. If Bess is to save her own reputation, she must find Wilkins and uncover the truth. Then comes disturbing word from the Shropshire police, complicating the already difficult situation: Wilkins has been spotted, and he’s killed a man. Both the Army and the nursing service hold Bess negligent for losing the war hero, and there will be an inquiry. The next morning when Bess goes to collect Wilkins, he has vanished. Home on leave, Bess Crawford is asked to accompany a wounded soldier confined to a wheelchair to Buckingham Palace, where he’s to be decorated by the King.
