En un fin de semana de verano de 1949, el círculo de Farthing, un grupo de familias inglesas de la alta sociedad, se reúne en el campo. Lucy, la hija menor de una de estas familias, está casada con un judío londinense, lo que no es del agrado de sus padres. La sorpresa llega cuando son invitados a pasar unos días en el campo, pero la situación se complica cuando un político del círculo de Farthing es asesinado de forma ritual. Esta novela de Jo Walton nos plantea una realidad alternativa en la que Inglaterra firmó la paz con la Alemania nazi en 1941, explorando conspiraciones políticas y asesinatos en un ambiente de suspense.
