They say she's a murderer. She says nothing. London, 1954. Eva Georgiou has just returned from her shift at the glamorous Caf de Paris, when she s summoned to her second job: Greek interpreter for the Metropolitan Police. There, she is tasked with representing Zina Pavlou, a Cypriot woman who has been accused of the brutal murder of her daughter-in-law who has been bludgeoned, strangled and then set alight.
Eva gets to work as Zina s translator, but her concern grows that the case may be more complicated than it seems. Then Zina changes everything when she reveals she s been accused of murder once before, years ago in Cyprus. While Eva s obsession with the case deepens, so does her bond with Zina.
And soon she will discover that when you lend your voice to an accused murderer, it comes at a devastating cost.
