I was so disappointed in this book. A few things got left out? Like years in Maisie's life!! It could have been so much better if the character of Maisie had been developed and fleshed out a lot more. I felt the author rushed to write it and get it published and sold.

Hello, I have read all the books so far but I looked at the first chapter or two and saw that Maisie's life was not going on a pleasant track. I am behind in following up on this #11. Can anyone tell me if they recommend just stopping with #10? Do you regret going on to #11?

There are some beautiful insights, and, as always, Maisie does wonderful work, rendering both justice and personal kindnesses in her relentless yet humane search for truth.(less)

Where is the book between this one and the last one. We only get flashback narrative about the time spent in India. No clear picture of marriage to James and where they were when he crashed. I keep searching the list of novels to see if I missed one! It just wasn't written, much to my disappointment. Perhaps Ms Winspear is growing tired of this heroine?

Isn't this 11 not 12 as indicated?

Elizabeth Craft Looking at her website, it appears her 11th book was not in the Maisie Dobbs series, but a stand alone novel. So this would be the 11th Maisie Dobbs.

I'm sure there are giveaways and then promo copies to authors and book sites as well.(less)
