HTML:<b>Spy and code-breaker extraordinaire Maggie Hope returns to war-weary London, where she is thrust into the dangerous hunt for a monster, as the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling mystery series for fans of Jacqueline Winspear, Charles Todd, and Anne Perry continues.</b><br /> England, 1942. The Nazis’ relentless Blitz may have paused, but London’s nightly blackouts continue. Now, under the cover of darkness, a madman is brutally killing and mutilating young women in eerie and exact re-creations of Jack the Ripper’s crimes. What’s more, he’s targeting women who are reporting for duty to be Winston Churchill’s spies and saboteurs abroad. The officers at MI-5 quickly realize they need the help of special agent Maggie Hope to find the killer dubbed “the Blackout Beast.” A trap is set. But once the murderer has his sights on Maggie, not even Buckingham Palace can protect the resourceful spy from her fate.<br /> <b>Praise for <i>The Queen’s Accomplice</i><br /></b><br /> <b>“</b>Maggie is a thoughtful spy whose dangerous escapades never disappoint.”<b>—<i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b><br /> “A fine historical mystery given a feminist slant.”<b>—<i>Booklist</i></b><br /> “Plausible and elegant . . .
