'Tense. Moving. Morally complex. Zina Pavlou is wholly unforgettable.' Rachel Rhys They say
she's a murderer. She says nothing. London 1954. Eva Georgiou has just returned from her shift
at the glamorous Café de Paris when she's summoned to her second job: Greek interpreter for
the Metropolitan Police. There she is tasked with representing Zina Pavlou a Cypriot woman
who has been accused of the brutal murder of her daughter-in-law who has been bludgeoned
strangled and then set alight. Eva gets to work as Zina's translator but her concern grows
that the case may be more complicated than it seems. Then Zina changes everything when she
reveals she's been accused of murder once before years ago in Cyprus. While Eva's obsession
with the case deepens so does her bond with Zina. And soon she will discover that when you
lend your voice to an accused murderer it comes at a devastating cost. A compelling historical
