About the Book

When battlefield nurse Bess Crawford returns from France for a well-earned Christmas leave, she finds a bruised and shivering woman huddled in the doorway of her London flat. Realizing that the woman has nowhere to turn, Bess offers her shelter. When she feels safer, the woman reveals her name and that she has fled from her husband, an officer on leave, who struck her during a terrible quarrel. Still frightened, she will not return to her small village in Sussex unless Bess accompanies her. Every day of leave is precious, for Bess plans to visit her family. But concern and a firm sense of duty compel the independent and compassionate nurse to be certain the woman is safe. But once she arrives at the woman's house, Bess is unsettled by the tense atmosphere, which seems to permeate the very walls. Before she can understand what is going on, matters take a deadly turn when another of the houseguests, a wounded soldier, is murdered. Not only is Bess caught in the center of the hunt for a killer--she becomes a prime suspect herself.

Rosalyn Landor is an English-born television, theater, and multiple-award-winning audiobook narrator.

She has won numerous Audie awards and AudioFile magazine Earphones awards.

Review :
"A thoughtful mystery with an excellent plot, well-drawn characters, and wonderful atmosphere." -- "Associated Press" "Highly recommended--well-rounded, believable characters, a multilayered plot solidly based on human nature, all authentically set in the England of 1917, make A Bitter Truth an outstanding and riveting read." -- "Stephanie Laurens, New York Times bestselling author" "Landor narrates in cool, clear tones with a mild English accent, effectively differentiating the female characters. Her strong, deep voice for males works well." -- "Booklist, audio review" "Outstanding...The Todds (a mother-son writing team) plausibly insert their heroine yet again into a criminal investigation, besides providing their usual depth of characterization." -- "Publishers Weekly (starred review)"
