Another installment in this very engaging series about a woman making her own way as a detective between the Wars in England. Whether the existence of such a female professional is really an anachronism or not, a huge number of "surplus" women after the "Great War" really did exist. I admire the way the author, Jacqueline Winspear, conveys so many social ramifications of the war. The novels are more interesting than sad, though.
