The Murder Most Unladylike books are as charming as they come. I think the previous instalments hold more suspense than this one—perhaps a result of the crime here feeling a bit forced?—but I enjoyed the change of scenery and the steady, loyal friendship between Hazel and Daisy (always).

Stevens’s best mystery so far! Seeing Hazel & Daisy in Hong Kong was an absolute joy. I loved that Hazel was able to take the lead when she would normally be in Daisy’s shadow and Daisy being forced to experience the role of the ‘sidekick’. Utterly wonderful.
