Maisie gets caught up in Secret Service stuff investigating a college in Cambridge and at the same time trying to work out what happened with Sandra, a girl she knew from service. Her work as a detective has become complicated by her mission and she's trying to do the best for herself and for others.

Maisie tries hard to please everyone, not sure that she's pleasing herself as often as she should. Her relationship with James Compton is also interesting to see and her doubts and worries are out there.

I like this series, there are times when I want it to move faster but it's the Downton Abbey of Cosies.
