Book # 13 Maise Dobbs mystery, Among the Mad, by Jacqueline Winspear. This is the sixth book in her historic based series and I love every one. The story takes place in London between Christmas 1932 and the New Year. Maise solves her mystery in a country between wars and reeling from its effect. The mystery is to find a terrorist who has no problem with gassing dogs and birds and threatens to do the same to the London "fat cats". Billy, Maise's helper, his wife, and Maise's friend, Priscilla are fighting trauma. And Maise has to come to terms with her own madness. This could be a modern story involving soldiers and their families who have returned from Vietnam, the Gulf, or Iran. Much has been in the news lately about PT SD and other veteran's issues. Add military intrigue and mental hospitals and you have the makings for a fast moving "who done it".

It seems Maise is working through some of her issues and may even be building up for romance. Maybe in the next book. I can't wait.
