Farthing

In an alternate postwar England where fascism is on the rise, upper-class families of the "Farthing set" are gathered for a weekend retreat. When Sir James Thirkie is found murdered with a yellow Star of David pinned to his chest, Lucy Kahn realizes her Jewish husband is about to be framed for the crime. As they search for a way out, they navigate a dangerous political landscape with surprising twists and turns. Jo Walton's Farthing is a thrilling masterpiece.
