Kim
Kim asked Jacqueline Winspear:

I seem to remember that Maisie has a head wound (scars, concealed by her hair) from the war. Does she also have a TBI?

Jacqueline Winspear Kim, I had to look up TBI! No, she doesn't, though Simon has what we might today call a TBI.

Catherine  Hutchison
Catherine Hutchison asked Jacqueline Winspear:

Thank you for sharing Maisie with me.. she has gotten me through some tough times. I am interested in her connection to the gypsies who were at the hop picking. Do gypsies, Roma, whatever you care to call this group have a big part in English history? Will they resurface in Masie's life? It seems like such a strong connection for her.
