A Dangerous Place by Jacqueline Winspear

5.0

Maisie is a widow and just lost her baby, and on her way to England, after going to India to hide from the world. She stops at Gibraltar because she can’t face life back home. She stumbles upon the recently murdered body of a photographer, and investigates his death as a way to heal, becoming ensnared in international spying and the Spanish Civil war.

Learn about Gibraltar’s history, the Spanish Civil war, the evolution of fascism and British responses to it, as well as about Sephardic Jews.
