Farthing by Jo Walton
A Story of a World that Could Have Been
Set in an alternate history where Britain made peace with Nazi Germany, the story unfolds in a post-war world where fascism is subtly gaining ground. The narrative centers around a murder mystery at a country estate, where a prominent politician is found dead, and suspicion falls on a Jewish guest. As the investigation unfolds, the novel explores themes of political intrigue, prejudice, and the fragility of democracy, all while maintaining the tension and suspense of a classic whodunit.
