Hence today’s review of Messenger of Truth. I always look forward to this tour, so I decided to do my own “Month of Maisie” this year. It’s been my prompt disguised as an opportunity to read one of the earlier books and then treat myself to the new one. The last couple of years the publisher has toured both the upcoming book in the series (this year it’s To Die But Once) as well as the entire series to date. I was disappointed to learn that there was no “Month of Maisie” this year. But to solve the mystery of the artist's death, she will have to remain steady as the forces behind his death come out of the shadows to silence her.įollowing on the bestselling Pardonable Lies, Jacqueline Winspear delivers another vivid, thrilling, and utterly unique episode in the life of Maisie Dobbs.
In Messenger of Truth, Maisie Dobbs again uncovers the dark legacy of the Great War in a society struggling to recollect itself in difficult times. And while navigating her way into the heart of the aristocratic yet bohemian Bassington-Hopes, Maisie is deeply troubled by the tragedy of another, quite different family in need. The case soon takes Maisie to the desolate beaches of Dungeness in Kent, as well as the sinister underbelly of the city's art world. When the authorities refuse to conduct further investigations and close the case, Georgina - a journalist and infamous figure in her own right - takes matters into her own hands, seeking out a fellow graduate from Girton College: Maisie Dobbs, psychologist and investigator. The police declare the fall an accident, but the dead man's twin sister, Georgina, isn't convinced. On the night before the opening of his new and much-anticipated exhibition at a famed Mayfair gallery, Nicholas Bassington-Hope falls to his death.
