4.5 stars. My first Kerry Greenwood novel, and it did not disappoint! I can't wait to read the whole Miss Fisher series now.

The latest Phryne Fisher book has Phryne and Dot go to rural Daylesford to visit a health spa for First World War victims.
In this town, they meet two hotels with women running them, two explained “accidental” deaths and missing women.
Meanwhile, in Melbourne, Phryne’s family solve the unexplained death of a girl who goes to school with Ruth and Jane.
This book explores family relationships, loyalties, poor policing, and life in the 1920s.
Slightly slow, at the start I preferred the Melbourne story, but the Daylesford story became more gripping and exciting.
Good resolutions for both stories, would recommend.

2 1/2 stars. It's been a long time since I read a Phyrne Fisher, and I enjoyed the setting, but the language seemed more flowery than I remember. Overexplanatory similes and Weird Capitalisation that I don't recall from her earlier writings. Hmmm...

3.5 stars. I'm a huge fan of the TV series and have wanted to read these books for years but I find them hard to get my little mittens on. To my to my joy my book app got this book in. But none of the other books in the series.. But I found it enjoyable anywho maybe I would have enjoyed it more if I was more caught up, don't know how closely the tv show was and it was years since I saw it. I would want to say I'll read more in the series as I don't know how I will get hold on them.. lovely book!
