A Traitor In Whitehall by Julia Kelly. New York: Minotaur Books, 2023. 294 pages. ****
Book 1 in the Evelyn Redfern series, Evelyn's colorful past known as the Parisian Orphan, (not of her making) does not prepare her for her current position, enlisted by her father's friend to be a typist in the war rooms of Prime Minister Winston Churchill. Ill-prepared for the politics of the typing pool she catches the eye of a special investigator who claims her as his assistant. Evelyn is soon drawn into murder and espionage.
Part cozy mystery and historical fiction, this first book in the series promises more fun and challenges to follow.
