Acerca de esta escucha

Maisie Dobbs investigates the mysterious death of a controversial artist - and World War I veteran - in the fourth entry in the best-selling series London, 1931.

The night before an exhibition of his artwork opens at a famed Mayfair gallery, the controversial artist Nick Bassington-Hope falls to his death. The police rule it an accident, but Nick's twin sister, Georgina, a wartime journalist and a controversial figure in her own right, isn't so sure. When the authorities refuse to consider her theory that Nick was murdered, Georgina seeks out an old classmate from Girton College, Maisie Dobbs, psychologist and investigator, for help.

Nick was a veteran of World War I, and before long the case leads Maisie to the desolate beaches of Dungeness in Kent, and into the sinister underbelly of the city's art world.

Following up on the best-selling Pardonable Lies, Jacqueline Winspear here delivers another vivid, thrilling and utterly unique episode in the life of Maisie Dobbs, in Messenger of Truth.

Paint the Truth

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, if the friend enjoys British stories concerning the difficulties in England following WWI.

Who was your favorite character and why?

In this story, I was touched by the character, Billy, Maisie's assistant who suffers a great personal tragedy. He continues on in the face of great emotional pain.

Have you listened to any of Orlagh Cassidy’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

She always does a perfect job reading Maisie, Billy, and all the other characters.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

This is my second listen to this book. I enjoyed it more. After a year or so, I might listen again.

Any additional comments?

This is one of my favorite Maisie Dobbs stories. Jacqueline Winspear's talent as a writer shines through.

Wonderful historically based series!

I’m binging on this series. I love the character of Maisie Dobbs. She’s smart, thoughtful, insightful, kind, etc. And the historical contexts and details are brought to life through Winspear’s storytelling.

Thank you!

Fun Listen

The series takes place in post WWI England, and is informative in capturing both time and place. Maise Dobbs is a unique personality, easy to like. The story is well-paced and intelligent. The narrator is excellent. I really enjoyed this one!

A Pleasant Surprise.

Very well done. Most believable. The author shows a very good deal of intelligence, and a good researcher. Overall a very pleasant surprise. I'm buying my second one now.

Being Honest wit yourself and Others is so Important

Mazy Dobbs conducts her investigations with a thread honesty and Integrity which stood out to me throughout this novel... she does not alway share her plan for getting to the truth but the story is written well enough to keep the reader intrigued...This writer displays a great deal of knowledge about the WWII era and how life of locals in Europe was affected after that

Good though not her best

Some of the detail about art was slow slogging, but another fine work worth listening to from this author

Great period piece

I very much enjoyed this period piece. This is set in the aftermath of The Great War, WW1, in England. It is so rich in details, you feel immersed. Great read.

Very Good, Just Not Great

I was a bit disappointed in this one. Like I said, very good, just not great. I have no doubt the next one is. the series will be quite a bit better. Can't stop them now.
