This was an interesting take on a detective story, lighthearted in tone and interesting how the mystery was woven together.

Loved this book! So funny and was a great read for the commute. One star off as I did get a little confused with the murder but managed to get back on track. Would definitely recommend as something different.

Her Majesty the Queen has an event at Windsor Castle, and much to everyone's surprise, a young Russian pianist that entertained all the guests is found dead in the morning in a compromising manner. Instead of letting MI5 solve the case, the Queen has some thoughts of her own, and uses her new personal secretary to help tie up the loose ends and solve the murder. An entertaining mystery, especially if you enjoy the Royal family.

Started with promise...loved it. Lost interest around 60% of the way in. Carried on reading as felt I was near the end but wasn't invested in the plot.

(Disclaimer: I know that this book is moderately loved, and that’s absolutely valid. I can understand why… this is just a rant, meant to be funny
