About this listen

Britain is at war. Returned from a dangerous mission onto enemy soil, Maisie Dobbs is fully aware of the gravity of the current situation; her world is on the cusp of great change. One of those changes can be seen in the floods of refugees that are arriving in Britain, desperate for sanctuary. When Maisie stumbles on the deaths of refugees who may have been more than ordinary people, she is drawn into an investigation that requires all her insight and strength.

The 13th title in the Maisie Dobbs series from New York Times best-selling author Jacqueline Winspear.

This book was excellent. It was so well read by Julie Teal I thought there was a full cast of superb actors. The story was engaging and moving. Because I have listened to a few Marie Dobbs novels, I feel like I know the main characters with a warm familiarity now.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book.

"In This Grave Hour," the thirteenth book in the Maisie Dobbs series, is another excellent mystery brimming with the atmosphere and anxiety of the now officially declared war. Winspear describes 1939 London (and several other locations) so masterfully you feel you are rushing through the capital's streets along Maisie in pursuit of truth and justice.
It's a classic Maisie Dobbs tale full of thrilling investigation, intelligent observation and impressive depth of understanding of the human spirit. Very enjoyable and most recommended!

Excellent and most enjoyable.
