{"product_id":"farthing","title":"Farthing","description":"Eight years after they overthrew Churchill and led Britain into a separate peace with Hitler, the upper-crust families of the “Farthing set” are gathered for a weekend retreat. Among them is estranged Farthing scion Lucy Kahn, who can''t understand why her and her husband David''s presence was so forcefully requested. Then the country-house idyll is interrupted when the eminent Sir James Thirkie is found murdered - with a yellow Star of David pinned to his chest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLucy begins to realize that her Jewish husband is about to be framed for the crime - an outcome that would be convenient for altogether too many of the various political machinations underway in Parliament in the coming week. But whoever''s behind the murder, and the frame-up, didn''t reckon on the principal investigator from Scotland Yard being a man with very private reasons for sympathizing with outcasts and underdogs - and prone to look beyond the obvious as a result.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the trap slowly shuts on Lucy and David, they begin to see a way out - a way fraught with peril in a darkening world.","brand":"Little, Brown Book Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58574278656335,"sku":"9781472112972","price":16.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.suomalainen.com\/products\/farthing","provider":"Suomalainen.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
