A Lesson in Secrets

Historischer Krimi von Jacqueline Winspear

In the summer of 1932, Maisie Dobbs’s career takes an exciting new turn when she accepts an undercover assignment directed by Scotland Yard’s Special Branch and the Secret Service. Posing as a junior lecturer, she is sent to a college in Cambridge to monitor any activities ’not in the interests of the Crown‘. When the college’s controversial pacifist founder and principal, Greville Liddicote, is murdered, Maisie is directed to stand back as Detective Chief Superintendent Robert MacFarlane and Detective Chief Inspector Richard Stratton spearhead the investigation.

Wenn auch (noch nicht) dieses, so habe ich doch diverse der Bücher um Maisie Dobbs, eine Privatdetektivin in der Zeit nach dem ersten Weltkrieg mit Vergnügen gelesen. “The combination of period detail and intricate storytelling makes A Lesson in Secrets seem distant enough to be romantic but sufficiently modern to engage our sympathies.” (Wall Street Journal) (435 Rezensionen / 4,4 Sterne), 477 Seiten noch günstig?
