Description

As Britain becomes engulfed in a second World War, the indomitable Maisie Dobbs is plunged into a treacherous battle of her own when she stumbles on the deaths of refugees who may have been more than ordinary people seeking sanctuary on English soil, in this enthralling chapter in Jacqueline Winspear's enormously popular New York Times best-selling series.

Critics have long sung the praises of Jacqueline Winspear and her best-selling Maisie Dobbs series. In the 13th installment, Maisie - "one of the great fictional heroines, equal parts haunted and haunting" (Parade) - is back with more mystery, adventure, and psychological insight.

When listeners last heard Maisie Dobbs, it was 1938, and the world was on the brink of war. Maisie herself was on a dangerous mission inside Nazi Germany, where she encountered an old enemy and the Führer himself. In In This Grave Hour, a year has passed, and Maisie is back home in England - yet neither she nor her nation is safe. Britain has just declared war on Germany and is mobilizing for the devastating battle ahead. But when she stumbles on the deaths of a group of refugees, Maisie suspects the enemy may be closer than anyone knows.

Old fans will be delighted by Maisie's return, and new listeners will be hooked by this thrilling installment in Jacqueline Winspear's "thoughtful, probing series" (Oprah.com).

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Listening doesn't get much better than the newest Maisie Dobbs mystery performed by the series's longtime narrator, Orlagh Cassidy. She brings pristine pacing and a deep understanding of the regular characters combined with an ever-fresh perspective on new characters and the action.... This is an excellent series and a listening experience that is pure pleasure." ( AudioFile)

Slow

The story line is pretty good, but getting there takes a while. So much time describing every person, the surroundings etc that it’s overwhelming. I realize its necessary to paint the picture but overdone.

In this grave hour

This is another outstanding example of Jacqueline Winspear‘s talent in writing. It’s not just the writing, it’s the creation of the stories, and how one links into the other. Her character development is impeccable. The narration is a delight. If you have not listened to other books in the series I highly recommend all of them. This is my second trip through the series and whatever I missed in the first go round I’m enjoying, now. Congratulations to Ms Winspear on this delightful series!
