In Farleigh Field by Rhys Bowen

In 1941, all of Britain is on edge, worried about German spies and a possible invasion. The Suttons of Farleigh in Kent have had a big portion of their stately home taken over by the army. When a man falls from the sky and dies because his parachute hasn't opened, some in the area have suspicions that he was a German spy who wanted to pass a message to someone local. Friends Lady Pamela Sutton and Ben Cresswell (the vicar's son) have both been working for the government on secret projects, and soon find themselves involved in the case. Ben has been in love with Pamela since they were children, but her heart is with Ben's best friend--wealthy pilot Jeremy Prescott. Will Pamela and Ben be able to uncover a German sympathizer? In Farleigh Field, the reader is immersed in the everyday lives of ordinary Britons during World War II. A perfect read for those who enjoy the Maggie Hope mysteries by Susan Elia MacNeal.
