Pardonable Lies by Jacqueline Winspear
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 WI memories to resolve the mystery of a pilot's death.
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 Jacqueline Winspear's 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).An Imperfect Vengeance, a New York Times bestseller, and four more Maisie Dobbs novels are written by Jacqueline Winspear. With her work, she has won various honors, including the Agatha, Alex, and Macavity prizes for Maisie Dobbs, the first novel in the series. She was born in the United Kingdom and now resides in California.
