"She was the perfect daughter before you got to her."Summer 1914.In her family's eyes, Verona North was all a girl should be at nineteen-talented, brave, and attractive, with the world opening out in front of her.But only a few months after leaving home to study art in London, she was found hanging in the family boathouse-dead from an apparent suicide. It seems that their perfect daughter had plunged rapidly from respectability to drugs, depravity, and left-wing politics.To her father, a respectable naval officer, there is no doubt who's to blame-his cousin the suffragette, Nell Bray.Nell is sure she's not responsible, yet a sense of guilt at not having paid more attention to the young girl sets her on a trail to discover what really happened in the weeks leading up to Verona's death. Nell's search takes her from an enclave of Bohemian anarchists in Chelsea to an old, run-down shop full of mysterious sea charts and maps.Piecing together clues, Nell soon discovers that Verona was leading a double life full of dangerous secrets.Was her death really a suicide, or a cover-up for murder?
