World War II has finally come home to Britain, but it takes more than nightly air raids to rattle intrepid spy and expert code breaker Maggie Hope. After serving as a secret agent to protect Princess Elizabeth at Windsor Castle, Maggie is now an elite member of the Special Operations Executive–a black ops organization designed to aid the British effort abroad–and her first assignment sends her straight into Nazi-controlled Berlin, the very heart of the German war machine. Relying on her quick wit and keen instincts, Maggie infiltrates the highest level of Berlin society, gathering information to pass on to London headquarters. But the secrets she unveils will expose a darker, more dangerous side of the war–and of her own past.

The officers at MI5 quickly realize they need the help of Special Agent Maggie Hope to find the killer dubbed "the Blackout Beast". A trap is set.

London, 1940: Winston Churchill has just been sworn in, war rages across the Channel, and the threat of a Blitz looms larger by the day. But none of this deters Maggie Hope. She graduated at the top of her college class and possesses all the skills of the finest minds in British intelligence, but her gender qualifies her only to be the newest typist at No. 10 Downing Street. Her indefatigable spirit and gifts for codebreaking, though, rival those of even the highest men in government, and Maggie finds that working for the prime minister affords her a level of clearance she could never have imagined....

Maggie Hope has come a long way since serving as a typist for Winston Churchill. Now she's working undercover for the Special Operations Executive in the elegant but eerily silent city of Paris, where SS officers prowl the streets in their Mercedes and the Ritz is draped with swastika banners. Walking among the enemy is tense and terrifying, and even though she's disguised in chic Chanel, Maggie can't help longing for home.

Description
For fans of Jacqueline Winspear, Charles Todd, and Anne Perry, The Prime Minister's Secret Agent is a gripping new mystery featuring intrepid spy and code breaker Maggie Hope. And this time, the fallout of a deadly plot comes straight to her own front door.
World War II rages on across Europe, but Maggie Hope has finally found a moment of rest on the pastoral coast of western Scotland. Home from an undercover mission in Berlin, she settles down to teach at her old spy training camp, and to heal from scars on both her body and heart. Yet instead of enjoying the quieter pace of life, Maggie is quickly drawn into another web of danger and intrigue. When three ballerinas fall strangely ill in Glasgow - including one of Maggie's dearest friends - Maggie partners with MI-5 to uncover the truth behind their unusual symptoms. What she finds points to a series of poisonings that may expose shocking government secrets and put countless British lives at stake. But it's the fight brewing in the Pacific that will forever change the course of the war - and indelibly shape Maggie's fate.

The narration spoils the book
What made the experience of listening to The Prime Minister's Secret Agent the most enjoyable?
The series is interesting and the time period and history described makes for a good read.
Would you be willing to try another book from Susan Elia MacNeal? Why or why not?
I like the author but some else needs to narrate.
What didn’t you like about Susan Duerden’s performance?
Her cadence and breathy deliver is hard to listen to. There are emphasis where there shouldn't be and her raspy whispery voice is annoying.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No

GET IT RIGHT!!!!
There were several goofs in this book including name mix-ups. But the one inexcusable error was referring to a sailor as a "private"!! Insulting. If you are going to write a book about war and the military at least get the ranks and ratings correct!!!

Dissapointed
If you could sum up The Prime Minister's Secret Agent in three words, what would they be?
Waste of time
What could Susan Elia MacNeal have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
This book is basically about Maggie working through her issues so she can go do spy work again. I felt like this could have been condensed into a couple chapters at most and then get on with the story.
Any additional comments?
I've really enjoyed the series so far. I was looking forward to this book, but was disappointed because the whole book felt like an interlude between stories rather than a story in itself. I kept waiting for the story to pick up speed, by the time it started gaining momentum it was over.

slow....
slow story line, slow reading, slow developing the story line. just hated the section on Clara's mother - really? just not as exciting as the other books by far. was a dialed in story, dialed in performance. will give serious thought before purchasing the next one, maybe borrow from the local library instead. oh and let me add boringly slow.

Good story
Is there anything you would change about this book?
A different narrator. Her style is breathless and bumpy.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Susan Duerden?
Davina Porter
Do you think The Prime Minister's Secret Agent needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
Yes, of course. We need to see Maggie in the US, find out what path her mother follows, and see how her half sister gets released from Germany.

Revisionary History
What disappointed you about The Prime Minister's Secret Agent?
Long dragged out conversations that appear to be US and British hate-baiting. Listened for over 2 hours of the nice hour book and and never found out what the mystery was. Depression and anger run rampant
What could Susan Elia MacNeal have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Quit writing made up conversations that last 30 minutes about philosophy (Churchhill rants on and on )
Which scene was your favorite?
Could not find a favorite scene because I could not tolerate listening for HOURS with out a story to follow.

A little disappointing
Maggie Hope, our favorite spy, seems to be only a secondary story line in this book. Very disappointing to Maggie Hope fans. The pacing is slow and story line is convoluted until the few ending chapters when the author snaps out of the doldrums and sews everything together a bit too neatly.

An addictive and entertaining series
I have enjoyed following Miss Maggie Hope as she makes her way through WWII. I find her adventures with a touch of reality, idealism vulnerability and idealism a refreshing break during my gardening and daily chores. As a history buff, this series does just what I need. the story lines have just the right mix of a mild predtableness with completely unpredictable surprises to keep the stories in constant motion.
