The Maisie Dobbs books are fantastic! Sometimes books in a series like this the author doesn't seem to be able to keep up the good storyline and writing but that is not the case with Jacqueline Winspear. She just keeps getting better and better with each book.
I love the details she puts into the story; the description of the clothes, cars and places give the reader such a visual of the characters and landscape.
All of the books in the Maisie Dobbs series are just wonderful. ...more

I can't believe I have read 7 books in this mystery series but I have! I have not been enthralled by mysteries since I read Agathe Chritie as a teen but I love the combination of the mystery, the history (post WWI in England) and the compelling characters. This well written series has been a New York Times bestseller list choice over and over and I understand why. I managed to find all the books used on Amazon as most are out of print.

The last few books have actually ended on a hopeful note - I really liked seeing how the characters have grown and changed. And it's nice to see them finally healing from the war. Of course, WWII looms in the future. I'm sad I have only one more book before I'm caught up with the series. I hope the author writes more.
