Blue Madonna by James R Benn
1944. Captain Billy Boyle is court-martialled on spurious charges of black market dealings. Stripped of his officer's rank and sentenced to three months' hard labour, Billy is given an opportunity: he can avoid his punishment if he goes behind enemy lines to rescue a high-value Allied soldier. A secret chamber has since been taken over by the Allies. But this 'safe house' turns out to be anything but - two downed airmen have been murdered. Billy is flown in and must solve the mystery of who is behind the murders with both the Germans and a killer hot on their heels.Billy Boyle's World War II mysteries are written by James R.Benn. Billy Boyle, his debut, was called one of Book Sense's top five mysteries of 2006 and was a Dilys Award contender. These books garnered starred ratings from Publishers Weekly and Library Journal, as well as being named Bookpage Mystery of the Month. The Independent Mystery Booksellers Association has designated two of them as Killer Books. Benn and his wife, Deborah Mandel, live in Hadlyme, Connecticut, where he has worked as a librarian for many years.
