Book Reviews of Birds of a Feather (Maisie Dobbs Mysteries)
Book Review: Good reading
Summary: 5 Stars
I am not much of a mystery reader, but I love the Maisie Dobbs books. I really enjoy the gentle writing, and the way the author puts so many authentic period details into her books ---such as how to start a 1920 car, what a high-end grocery was like, drug use, fashion, and much more.
The novel shows Maisie solving crimes by using research, psychology, detecting, and even something similar to yoga (to center her mind). Winspear writes a substantial book with good flow and character development.
I am so glad I have several more Maisie books to look forward to!
Summary of Birds of a Feather (Maisie Dobbs Mysteries)
Jacqueline Winspear's marvelous and inspired debut, Maisie Dobbs, won her fans from coast to coast and raised her intuitive, intelligent, and resourceful heroine to the ranks of literature's favorite sleuths. Birds of a Feather finds Maisie Dobbs on another dangerously intriguing adventure in London "between the wars." It is the spring of 1930, and Maisie has been hired to find a runaway heiress. But what seems a simple case at the outset soon becomes increasingly complicated when three of the heiress's old friends are found dead. Is there a connection between the woman's mysterious disappearance and the murders? Who would want to kill three seemingly respectable young women? As Maisie investigates, she discovers that the answers lie in the unforgettable agony of the Great War.Historical Books
