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.

Winspear has become one of my favorite authors. Although it is not necessary, I would suggest staring with the first book and reading them in sequence.

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