In the summer of 1932, the career of psychologist and
investigator Maisie Dobbs takes an exciting new turn when she
accepts an undercover assignment from the British Secret Service.
Sent to pose as a junior lecturer at a private college in
Cambridge, she will monitor any activities "not in the interests of
His Majesty's government."
When the college's controversial pacifist founder, Greville
Liddicote, is murdered, however, Maisie is directed to stand back
as her colleagues in Scotland Yard spearhead the investigation. But
she soon discovers that the circumstances of Liddicote's death
appear inextricably linked to the suspicious comings and goings of
faculty members and students under her surveillance. To unravel
this web, the investigator must overcome a reluctant Secret
Service, discover shameful hidden truths about Britain's conduct
during the Great War, and face off against the rising power of the
Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei--the Nazi Party--as
the storm clouds of World War II gather on the horizon.
