About this listen
Unforgettable characters and a fascinating 1920s setting.
It's the end of the roaring twenties, and the exuberant and Honourable Phryne Fisher is dancing and gaming with gay abandon. But she becomes bored with London and the endless round of parties. In search of excitement, she sets her sights on a spot of detective work in Melbourne, Australia. And so mystery and the beautiful Russian dancer, Sasha de Lisse, appear in her life. From then on it's all cocaine and communism until her adventure reaches its steamy end in the Turkish baths of Little Lonsdale Street.

Is it good ? Too right,
It was a pleasure to 'hear' this book. Just a couple of misplaced emphases; and maybe just one more run through before recording, but all in all, well done.

Narrator
Really enjoyed the book however the narrator grated. The book is set in Australia however the working class Australians sound cockney, which is particularly irritating.
