Maisie Dobbs returns in a gripping tale of political intrigue and personal tragedy set in Spring 1937. After four years away from England, during which she found love and faced profound loss, Maisie seeks solace in India. However, her plans are interrupted when her stepmother calls her back home due to her aging father’s declining health. On her voyage to England, Maisie realizes she isn't ready to return and, despite the captain's warnings about the dangers ahead, disembarks in Gibraltar. The British garrison town is rife with refugees escaping the brutal civil war in Spain, and danger looms large.
