1943, Seattle. While raging war reshapes the landscape of Europe, its impact is felt thousands of miles away too. Before the war, Nora Kinney was one of countless housewives and mothers in her comfortable Capitol Hill neighborhood. Now, with her doctor husband stationed in North Africa, Nora feels compelled to do more than tend her victory garden or help with scrap metal drives . . .
At the Boeing B-17 plant, Nora learns to wield a heavy riveting gun amid the deafening noise of the assembly lineāa real-life counterpart to āRosie the Riveterā in the recruitment posters. Yet while the country desperately needs their help, not everyone is happy about āall these womenā taking over menās jobs. Nora worries that she is neglecting her children, especially her withdrawn teenage son. But amid this turmoil, a sinister tragedy occurs: One of Noraās coworkers is found strangled in her apartment, dressed in an apron, with a lipstick smile smeared on her face.
Itās the beginning of a terrifying pattern, as women war-plant workers like Nora are targeted throughout Seattle and murdered in the same ritualistic manner. And eclipsing Noraās fear for her safety is her secret, growing conviction that she and the killer are connectedāand that the haven that was her home has become her own personal battlefield . . .
