I started this book about 3 weeks ago, but I was too antsy with the anatomy scan to sit through it. But I finally sat down and read the last 3/4 in about 2 days.
Maisie Dobbs is an interesting series of books. Besides the fact that the author finds it necessary to describe each of her outfits in great detail, to me she does NOT give away much until the very end. In fact, while we were reading today I was saying how I hoped it picked up soon because I knew stuff was about to go down and there were only about 80 pages left.
But I do enjoy this series! It is a series with a heroine, instead of a hero, and she isn't like many of the other heroines in books who talk about how they hate men and whatnot. She's just a girl who served in World War 1, and has been using her talents to create a business for herself.
Note: this book was somewhat difficult towards the end. I couldn't believe the secrets the characters had been keeping, and it was pretty awful. But ultimately, everyone felt they were satisfied with their revenge/forgiveness plan.
