In this milestone of historical mystery fiction, Maisie Dobbs embarks on her final investigation, delving into a profound mystery from her past amid the turmoil of post-war London. In 1945, four adolescent orphans, scarred by their wartime experiences, are squatting in a vacant mansion in Belgravia, abandoned by its owners due to the Luftwaffe bombing. When a demobilized British soldier, struggling with his own trauma, seeks refuge with the children, Maisie visits the mansion on behalf of the owners. She quickly becomes intrigued by the children's evasive stories and their unexpected self-defense skills, hinting at a deeper mystery. As she strives to provide comfort and hope for the orphans and the soldier, Maisie uncovers a decades-old enigma linked to her first husband, James Compton, who died while piloting an experimental aircraft. This journey compels her to confront her own painful past and reassess long-held beliefs. The award-winning series has captivated hundreds of thousands of readers, drawn to Maisie’s resilience and compassion. This final assignment not only charts a new future for her and her family but also vividly captures the challenges faced by Britain at the end of the Second World War, tying up Maisie's story while illuminating life during this pivotal time.
