Maisie Dobbs & Birds of a Feather (2 in 1)

I am definitely a fan. I often recommend Maise books to my customers who like English mysteries. There is something very special about these books. They are a treat to read.

An excellent series of stories, thoughtful and entertaining. I recommend the enire series of Dobbs books.

I just discovered Jacqueline Winspear recently and was completely enchanted by her Masie Dobbs mysteries. The mysteries take place during WW1. Winspear writes so vividly and factually of this era that one might think she actually lived through this time herself. Her mysteries take me back to the 1800's and early 1900's when, in my estimation the very best mysteries were written. Maisie became a detective back during the "great war" when women weren't exactly welcomed in such an occupation. She solves mysteries as well suffers through her own heartbreaking losses during the time we called, "the war to end all wars". Once you read a Maisie Dobbs book, you want more and more.
