This series just gets better and better as it develops.
Maisie is called on to investigate the accident (possible murder) of a famed artist who fell to his death as he was mounting his exhibit in a gallery. As she delves into his troubled and tormented background, she finds a man who was tortured and changed forever by his experiences in WW1. Was his death somehow connected to his artistic depictions of the bloody conflict during that war?

Winspear writes with a keen insight into her characters' feelings, their motivations and their humanity. And I especially loved the inkling/beginning of Maisie finding her way back to life from a place of sadness and despair.
Very well done. 5/5 stars 4mo
