Publisher Description

The second Maisie Dobbs mystery Jacqueline Winspear’s marvelous debut, Maisie Dobbs, won her fans from around the world and raised her intuitive, intelligent, and resourceful heroine to the ranks of literature’s favorite sleuths. Birds of a Feather, its follow-up, finds psychologist and private investigator Maisie Dobbs on another dangerously intriguing adventure in London “between the wars.” It is the spring of 1930, and Maisie has been hired to find a runaway heiress. But what seems a simple case at the outset soon becomes increasingly complicated when three of the heiress’s old friends are found dead. Is there a connection between the woman’s mysterious disappearance and the murders? Who would want to kill three seemingly respectable young women? As Maisie investigates, she discovers that the answers lie in the unforgettable agony of the Great War.

"I like the reader for the first book better. This reader talks so fast I had to check if my mp3 player was on fast mode. I am enjoying this series though. Non gory murder mysteries. Something that is hard to find these days. And I've read all the Agatha Christie I can handle. "

    " I pushed on to this second one because a friend told me that they get better but . . . yeah, my critique basically remains this same. Seems like an American Girl story for adults and I don't mean that in a good way. "

    " Loved this second book in the series. Maisie takes on the case of a missing person, while doing her best to "fix" the lives of those with whom she comes in contact. And there's another potential suitor thrown into the mix, so we've got a little bit of romance added to a good mystery. "

    " The second in the Maisie Dobbs series. Another good whodunit set against the England-still-reeling-from-the-Great-War background. Wonderful sense of time and place. "

    " Not a big mystery reader, but I find these Maisie Dobbs books truly charming. There are some implausible elements to the plot (I feel like there were a couple of points where the author was taking the easy way out)...but I couldn't put this book down. "

    " This book is better than the first one. It flows better since all of the background is out of the way and you can catch some glimpses into what happen next for Maisie, but not quite... "
