It is my understanding that these books have been made into a TV series. My grandmother told me about the show and the books. She loves the style of clothing and the flare of the show. After reading these books I wouldn't mind seeing the show.
This book is actually 3 stories in 1. My grandmother and I like a lot of the same books so I decided to give it a shot.
Phryne Fisher certainly has her own style and so much gumption. The time frame in which these books are set in makes her lifestyle and characteristics all the better. The books are set in Australia in the 1920's. She is a PI with a keen eye and is witty and vivacious.
Backed by her trusty maid, Dot, taxi drivers and friends, Bert and Cec, and the Butlers (her butler and cook), she has been able to stop a cocaine ring, recover a kidnapped child, and solve a mysterious murder on a train. She loves fashion, speed, and the daring life.
There are many Phryne Fisher books. I just read the first 3. I can see myself going back to her world. The books are entertaining and a quick read. For now, I'll explore a few other worlds.
Happy reading!
