In
the third novel of this bestselling series, London investigator Maisie
Dobbs faces grave danger as she returns to the site of her most painful
WWI memories to resolve the mystery of a pilot's death

 
Agatha
Christie's Miss Marple. Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone. Alexander McCall
Smith's Precious Ramotswe. Every once in a while, a detective bursts on
the scene who captures readers' hearts—and imaginations—and doesn't let
go. And so it was with Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs, who made her
debut just two years ago in the eponymously titled first book of the
series, and is already on her way to becoming a household name.
 
A
deathbed plea from his wife leads Sir Cecil Lawton to seek the aid of
Maisie Dobbs, psychologist and investigator. As Maisie soon learns,
Agnes Lawton never accepted that her aviator son was killed in the Great
War, a torment that led her not only to the edge of madness but to the
doors of those who practice the dark arts and commune with the spirit
world.
 
In accepting the assignment, Maisie finds her spiritual
strength tested, as well as her regard for her mentor, Maurice Blanche.
The mission also brings her together once again with her college friend
Priscilla Evernden, who served in France and who lost three brothers to
the war—one of whom, it turns out, had an intriguing connection to the
missing Ralph Lawton.
 
Following on the heels of the triumphant
Birds of a Feather, Pardonable Lies is the most compelling installment
yet in the chronicles of Maisie Dobbs, "a heroine to cherish" (Marilyn
Stasio, The New York Times Book Review).
