cosmogyral 's review for:

Maisie Dobbs by Jacqueline Winspear
DID NOT FINISH

The mystery elements are separated with too much backstory, and because the prose is unusually to-the-point and light on description or emotional "action", it began to feel like a recitation of facts about young English women's experiences of WWI, which I am already very familiar with.
