Among the Mad: A Maisie Dobbs Novel by Jacqueline Winspear MYS Win
It is 1931 and the year is just about to end. Maisie has plans to visit her father when she finishes seeing a client. Instead she is horrified to see a man commit suicide in the middle of the street. The next day a threatening letter is sent to the government. The writer is making demands on behalf of all of the forgotten people who are being ignored by the government. If something isn't done a lot of people are going to die. And he mentions Maisie in the letter. That gets her a quick invitation to visit Scotland Yard. After the Detective Chief Superintendent is confident that Maisie is not involved (in the letters or the suicide) she becomes an adviser to Scotland Yard. She doesn't have much time to solve the case before more people will begin to die.
