Özet
 In the summer of 1932, Maisie Dobbs' career takes an exciting new turn when she accepts an undercover assignment directed by the Secret Service. Posing as a junior lecturer, she is sent to a private college in Cambridge to monitor any activities, "not in the interests of His Majesty's Government." Maisie must overcome a reluctant Secret Service, and discovers shameful hidden truths about Britain's conduct during the Great War.©2011 Jacqueline Winspear (P)2012 W F Howes Ltd Historical Mystery Traditional Detectives Women Sleuths

I am a great fan of Jacqueline winspear and this book was as good as all the previous books in the series. There is good plot which keeps you guessing till the end.

Excellent book

Another in this very good series, with an interesting plot with several threads. It brings in the lasting effects of the First World War, while foreshadowing the Second. Maisie’s personal story develops well. Beware, however, if you are Scottish-Julie Teal’s attempt at the accent is excruciatingly bad (as is often the case with Audible narrators) so it is only because the Scottish character, thankfully,appears infrequently that I haven’t given her fewer stars for her performance-it’s hard to listen to.

Intriguing story set in an interesting time

Beautifully read, a good old fashioned crime story with personal lives thrown in.

Not thrilling or cripping, but a relaxing crime novel to listen to.

I really recommend this book.

Excellent tale with excellent narration. A story full of life, both starting and ending; tragedy, war, and poverty juxtaposed with wealth and nationalism. How one book of children's stories caused chaos in so many lives in pursuit of peace.

The quality of the writing makes the narrative fly by: 10 hrs over in a flash.

VERY ENJOYABLE

Would you listen to A Lesson in Secrets again? Why?

I really enjoyed this book, and will enjoy listening to it again and again over future months and years. The plot is excellent, without too much in the way of distractions. No obscene words, just the 'b' word a couple of times. Both times it was in context, quite funny in fact.

What other book might you compare A Lesson in Secrets to, and why?

There isn't another book I could compare it with, it is unique in its own field.

Have you listened to any of Julie Teal’s other performances? How does this one compare?

No, but I am looking forward to doing so having downloaded two more audio books.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, but unfortunately one does have to go to bed!

Any additional comments?

I wish I had discovered this author sooner.

A throughly good listen
