Maisie Dobbs  - Jacqueline Winspear

She reflected upon the Davenham story, knowing only to well that there was a lot more to elicit. But by leaving much of the story untold, Maisie allowed the door to remain open. Instead of being exhausted by her own revelations and memories, Cecilia Davenham was being helped to shed her burden gradually, and Maisie was her guide.

 

At this point I haven´t got the faintest clue what kind of person Maisie is or what she is trying to aim at in her line of work. So far she is an undefinable mess of a character.
