About Harry Black

Award-winning novelist Harry Black (b.1968 -) is an English writer of historical and political fiction. An author, whose work explores history’s moral fault lines and the human cost of secrecy, conflict and survival.

He grew up in England with a deep fascination for history, not the grand narratives alone, but the quieter, often overlooked moments where private lives collide with public catastrophe. That sensibility underpins his fiction, which is characterised by slow-burn tension, emotional restraint, and an attention to what is left unsaid as much as what is revealed.

BERLIN, 1946.

The war is over.

The killing isn't.
A young girl is found among the ruins.

No wounds.
No decay.
No explanation.
Perfectly preserved. Deliberately placed.
Then another girl appears.
DCI Saunders and Detective Jenny Walsh begin to uncover a pattern, but someone wants the investigation stopped.
Files disappear.
Witnesses are silenced.
The girls are not random.

And whatever survived the war is still watching.

Some secrets were never meant to be uncovered.
