tlsouthard 's review for:

A Lesson in Secrets by Jacqueline Winspear
4.0

Enjoyed this entry in the series - 3 1/2 stars, rounded up because I'm feeling generous tonight.

Less "woo woo" in this one, for which I am glad. I was afraid that Maisie was leaning too heavily on that "I'm a sensitive, I can just *feel* things" angle in a few of the previous books. This one had none of that.

It also deals with something that I'm interested in - the rise of Nazism, and its appeal to some very rich and influential folks in Europe outside of Germany.

I also like that Maisie was recruited into the special services for a case - this will give another avenue for her talents besides traditional type cases.
