Farthing by Jo Walton

4.0

I started this a while back and for some reason it didn't 'work' for me. Post Brexit and Trump it works all too well. A variant on 'What if Hitler had won the war?', but with a twist - Hess's plan worked, peace was negotiated, and England is led by Tories of the further right persuasion. It looks at fist like a Christie-esque country house murder mystery, but gets much darker.
