The Consequences of Fear
From Shelf: What To Read After The Thursday Murder Club Series
When young Freddie Hackett witnesses a murder, the police refuse to believe his identification of the murderer. In desperation, he asks Maisie Dobbs to investigate.
London, October 1941. Freddie Hackett, a message runner for a government office, witnesses an argument that ends in murder. Dismissed by the police when reporting the crime, Freddie turns to private investigator Maisie Dobbs for help. While Maisie believes the boy and wants to help, she must exercise caution given her work with a secret government department spearheading covert operations against the Nazis. When she stumbles upon the killer in a place she least expects, Maisie soon realises she's been pulled into the orbit of a man who has his own reasons to kill - reasons that go back to another war.
