Really nice mystery starring a suffragette in Biarritz to try and claim some money that was left to the women's suffrage movement - by a courtesan who died a day later. It's one of those mysteries that is more slice of life than mystery, as our heroine unravels the various friends, lovers, and enemies of the late Topaz Brown, but Nell herself is relatively personality-free - or maybe a better word is "restrained."
