A Lesson in Secrets by Jacqueline Winspear

I enjoyed the latest Maisie Dobbs novel. Maisie gets a job with a hush-hush government agency requiring her to go undercover at a new college in Cambridge and try to suss out the truth regarding a pacifist who wrote a book that caused mutinies during World War I--a pacifist who's murdered fairly quickly into Maisie's work. I loved the story of the book within the book (the children's book that caused the mutiny), and Maisie does much more of the old-fashioned crime solving these days (a few of the books in the middle, she'd just sit in the room and know who had done it--which is not satisfying at all as a read). The side plots didn't really tie in to the main murder mystery, but the main mystery was good enough to carry the book.
