Then, England goes to war with Germany, which changes everything…and nothing.įinding the mysterious Francesca Thomas in her garden late one afternoon, Maisie is once again plunged into a mystery. She has the means to live comfortably, and she does, even if alone and lonely. She has returned to London and restarted her detective agency with the ever trustworthy Billy. I found an older and wiser Maisie, to be sure, but also a woman who has experienced tremendous grief and is only just recovering some semblance of “normal” life. Then In This Grave Hour was published this year, and I thought I’d get reacquainted with the series. I can’t remember being so shocked at a twist in a series. Winspear’s Maisie Dobbs series has been one of my go-to’s for years, both for my own reading and for recommending to others.Ī Dangerous Place completely put me off the series because of the horrifying (and, in my opinion, unnecessary) tragedy our heroine experienced right at the beginning.
