Honour the Dead

'A page-turner rife with historical details and timeless intrigue' - Kirkus Reviews Six English survivors of the Great War - four men and two women - converge on Lake Como, Italy in 1921. The result: one corpse and one killer... Psychiatrist Joseph Barnett is treating wealthy socialite Penelope Jones for schizophrenia at a sanitarium in Como. She is convinced someone is trying to kill her. Penelope is married to war veteran Alexander Cavendish, hero of the Battle of the Somme. Barnett knows - and hates - Cavendish from the trenches where both were officers during the battle: one was trying to save lives, the other take them. Both men had been wounded and treated at a hospital in Amiens where Bartlett met and later married Rose who worked there as a nurse. But why does Rose also harbour an intense animosity towards Cavendish? John Anthony Miller's fifth crime novel Honour the Dead is a Rubik's Cube of a murder case. Everyone is a suspect, there are motives to spare - readers will go dizzy trying to solve it... Motivated by a life-long love of travel and history, John Anthony Miller 's books are normally set in exotic locations during eras of global conflict. Characters must cope and combat, overcoming their own weaknesses as well as the catastrophes spawned by tumultuous times. He's the author of To Parts Unknown, When Darkness Comes, In Satan's Shadow, and All the King's Soldiers. He lives in southern New Jersey with his family.
