Join us for a discussion of mystery novel "Maisie Dobbs" by Jacqueline Winspear, the first book in the Maisie Dobbs series.

Maisie Dobbs isn’t just any young housemaid. When World War I breaks out, Maisie goes to the front as a nurse. After the War, Maisie sets up on her own as a private investigator. But her very first assignment, seemingly an ordinary infidelity case, soon reveals a much deeper, darker web of secrets, which will force Maisie to revisit the horrors of the Great War and the love she left behind.

The Mystery Book Club meets on the second Wednesday of each month from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM. All are welcome. For more information, call Carol at 703-746-1779 or email cpak@alexlibraryva.org.
