Didn't realize that I would enjoy this book as much as I have. It's a wonderful story about a bright young woman who, in spite of her humble origins, is able to attain her potential. Maisie becomes a private detective, modelling her life after her mentor, Maurice Blanche. Devouring classics and philosophy tomes, she earns a place in a women's college. With the war in progress, she lies about her age, obtains forged papers, and becomes a nurse who is stationed at the front. There is romance and mystery in this little read. It's a very good read.
