Synopsis

When World War I veteran and artist Nicholas Bassington-Hope falls from the scaffolding of his art masterpiece, his twin sister asks British psychologist and detective Maisie Dobbs to investigate. As with the previous three Dobbs period mysteries, Jacqueline Winspear's novel goes beyond mere whodunit to capture a rich sense of the history of the time--in this case, the murder mystery is shadowed by the social and political tensions of the gathering storm clouds of fascism over Europe.
