An Impartial Witness by Charles Todd
Bess Crawford is a nurse with the British Army in WWI. While in London, she witnesses a scene between a very distraught woman and a seemingly uncaring officer. She recognizes the woman as the wife of one of the soldiers she just escorted home from France. Later, she finds out that the woman was murdered that same day. Even though Scotland Yard is investigating the crime, Bess is curious about the woman and begins asking questions herself. Things become even more serious when a man is arrested for the murder and is scheduled to hang for it. Bess doesn't believe he did it and so must try to find the real murderer before she is sent back to France. This is the second in the Bess Crawford mystery series.
