A Very Different Kind of War
(2024)(The third book in the Esther and the Professor Mystery series)
A novel by Tia Brown
It’s March 1941 and Esther Graham is juggling motherhood, including looking after her son Michael and her newly adopted daughter Etta, working at the secret research establishment on the Studland Peninsula and driving a Women’s Voluntary Service canteen van in the evenings taking food and drink to the Home Guard and the people manning the guns that protect Poole.
She and her boss, the enigmatic Professor James Lomax, have already helped to foil two Nazi plots, but as the raids increase the wars feel closer and closer to home. Can they, and the Professor’s cousin Major Kit Carmichael foil a potential invasion, deal with a tragedy, and help to capture a Nazi spy in this very different kind of war? Can Esther cope with her love for her boss and her husband, who’s serving in Egypt and will a new friend give her a glimpse of a road she didn’t take and an understanding of who she is now and who she wants to become?
