Sizzling.” (Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review on Journey to Munich)
“Maisie Dobbs has found herself another war. Deftly blending historical detail with taut suspense and her usual thoughtful exploration of Maisie’s inner life, Winspear turns in another satisfying entry in her beloved series.” ( Shelf Awareness on Journey to Munich) “Paints a keen picture of a woman and a country struggling to remain calm in the face of sweeping changes. ‘Journey to Munich’ soars with class and courage, heart and humanity.” ( Richmond Times-Dispatch on Journey to Munich) But towering above all the novel’s assets is Maisie herself. “In Winspear’s skilled hands, the storyline shimmers with intelligence, the Third Reich setting simmers with evil, and the author’s silken prose sweeps the reader from page to page. “In addition to providing a very good mystery, Winspear does a smashing job describing the bravery exhibited by everyday Britons as the fear of invasion becomes ever more real.” ( Kirkus) Highly recommended for readers who enjoy a thoughtful mystery.” ( Library Journal, starred review) “Winspear has created another rich reading experience for Maisie’s many fans, but this title could be seen as entry point for new fans as well.
