Death in Focus: An Elena Standish Novel

It’s 1933, and photographer Elena Standish is happily flirting with an attractive man while vacationing on the Amalfi coast. She doesn’t expect to have her holiday sidetracked by an urgent mission to Berlin, to warn authorities about plans for an assassination with the potential to shatter Europe. Elena is in over her head, unsure whom to trust, but determined to complete the mission. In addition, she’s been taking photos of shocking political events that should be shared with the world. Back at home, Elena’s grandfather, the retired head of MI6, finds evidence of a traitor on the British side, which could throw everything into chaos. Perry (“Charlotte & Thomas Pitt” and “William Monk” series) has found the perfect time period to showcase a family’s impassioned defense of democracy and social justice in the face of rising totalitarianism.
