August 1914. As Michael Clifton is mapping land he has just
purchased in California's beautiful Santa Ynez Valley, war is
declared in Europe--and duty-bound to his father's native country,
the young cartographer soon sets sail for England to serve in the
British army. Three years later, he is listed as missing in
action.
April 1932. After Michael's remains are unearthed in France, his
parents retain London psychologist and investigator Maisie Dobbs,
hoping she can find the unnamed nurse whose love letters were among
their late son's belongings. It is a quest that leads Maisie back
to her own bittersweet wartime love--and to the stunning discovery
that Michael Clifton was murdered in his dugout. Suddenly an
exposed web of intrigue and violence threatens to ensnare the dead
soldier's family and even Maisie herself as she attempts to cope
with the impending loss of her mentor and the unsettling awareness
that she is once again falling in love.
