Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten say goodbye to Maisie Dobbs after 18 of Jacqueline Winspear’s mystery novels, narrated beautifully by Orlagh Cassidy. Listeners will appreciate the tender way the characters’ closing stories are treated. Cassidy's use of accents lends credibility to Winspear’s fully developed characters and well-researched plot. In 1945 London, 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 caring for the needy. Cassidy once again provides listeners with the rich tapestry that Winspear has woven through the series.
