Acerca de esta escucha

Maisie Dobbs got her start as a maid in an aristocratic London household when she was thirteen. Her employer, suffragette Lady Rowan Compton, soon became her patron, taking the remarkably bright youngster under her wing. Lady Rowan’s friend, Maurice Blanche, often retained as an investigator by the European elite, recognized Maisie’s intuitive gifts and helped her earn admission to the prestigious Girton College in Cambridge, where Maisie planned to complete her education.

The outbreak of war changed everything. Maisie trained as a nurse, then left for France to serve at the Front, where she found—and lost—an important part of herself. Ten years after the Armistice, in the spring of 1929, Maisie sets out on her own as a private investigator, one who has learned that coincidences are meaningful, and truth elusive. Her very first case involves suspected infidelity but reveals something different.

In the aftermath of the Great War, a former officer has founded a working farm known as The Retreat that acts as a convalescent refuge for ex-soldiers too shattered to resume normal life. When Fate brings Maisie a second case involving The Retreat, she must finally confront the ghost that has haunted her for over a decade.

Maisie Dobbs’ brains, empathy and surrounding cast makes for an entertaining and compelling story. I was happy to add Maisie to my list of admirable women.

My new favorite series

I hung on mainly because I’d recently returned an audible title and couldn’t return this one. The story wasn’t bad - with a different narrator, I’d continue the series. Her acting and expression weren’t bad, but the long, unnecessary pauses ruined an otherwise decent audiobook. At first, I’d wondered if the book had cut off entirely. Then the narration would continue. There were long pauses in the middle of conversations that wouldn’t have occurred naturally, in the middle of sentences, and between the words of the speaker and the text noting who spoke (the ‘she said’). By the end, it seemed like the narrator had to pause every time she thought the expression of the phrase was just right, as if it needed to be admired. Like I said, it ruined the audiobook for me.

Should never forget

Refreshing to hear a story about an honest person, with real intelligence and respect for others. No sex or foul language, just an intriguing plot with realistic characters. Not too many characters either, so the reader does not get confused or have to make a list of “who’s who.” I will buy this author’s books again.

A great story teller an excellent reader

I loved the story and I have never heard a better narrator. She and my other favorite narrator,Saskia Masreveld, can do no wrong. This narrator nade all the voices in this story come alive. Looking forward to Maisie and Billy’s next case.

Great story snd what a narrator!

In another time where there were many unnecessary restrictions on woman’s occupations a brave little lady much. Sadly wars continue through out time, wreaking havoc on those affected by them.

Another good read,
