Fans may be disappointed that this is Maisie Dobbs's final adventure, but they will appreciate the tender way the various characters' closing stories are treated. Narrator Orlagh Cassidy masterfully conveys the returning characters, Maisie's extended family, and the newly introduced individuals, male and female, young and old. Cassidy's talented use of accents lends credibility to Winspear's fully developed characters and well-researched plot. In London, 1945, Maisie discovers four adolescents and a desperately sick soldier squatting in a vacant mansion. While solving a possible murder occupies Maisie, she is truly driven by the care of the needy. Cassidy once again provides listeners with the rich tapestry that Winspear has woven through the series. An emotional conclusion sheds light on war's tragic impact. E.Q. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2024]
