"A Tom Doherty Associates book."
"Ginger Stuyvesant, an American heiress living in London during World War I, is engaged to Captain Benjamin Hartshorne, an intelligence officer. Ginger is a medium for the Spirit Corps, a special Spiritualist force ... Ginger and her fellow mediums contribute a great deal to the war efforts, so long as they pass the information through appropriate channels. While Ben is away at the front, Ginger discovers the presence of a traitor. Without the presence of her fiancé to validate her findings, the top brass thinks she's just imagining things"--Amazon.com.

Alternate WWI submitted by sdunav on June 18, 2017, 12:18pm This is a new paranormal fantasy/mystery set during an alternative WWI in England, France, and Germany. Parts of the story were fascinating, and parts dragged a bit for me. I really liked Kowal’s alternative Regency historical fiction, but this story was a bit too disjointed, though many of the characters were interesting. I wonder if she will continue this series?
