Maisie Dobbs by Jacqueline Winspear
I wasn’t convinced. This book was
recommended over and over on my lists on pinterest and amazon but it fell a bit
flat. It felt like Winspear couldn’t quite make up her mind what to focus on.
There would have been three options.
1.
The story of Maisie during the
war.
2.
Maisie’s talents, the spiritual
side
3.
The case itself.
Don’t get me wrong it was a clever book.
The reference when the case was cracked to the approaching war (WW2) was
subtle. But the case itself fell flat of being interesting. I followed it
through to the end because I wanted to find out what happened but only for that
reason. According to my mother (who has read them all to the most recent) it
gets better and sadder. Finger’s crossed!
