In Ben Elton's gripping historical drama set in Flanders during June 1917, a British officer and renowned poet is murdered while recovering from shell shock. Young English soldier is arrested for the crime despite proclaiming his innocence, leading conscientious objector and former detective Douglas Kingsley to investigate amidst the chaos of The Third Battle of Ypres. As he navigates a landscape where evidence and witnesses vanish into the mire, Kingsley grapples with profound questions about murder, justice, and the blurred lines between legality and morality in wartime.
