Away with the Fairies by Kerry Greenwood

4.0

Back in form here, though Dot does quite a bit of sleuthing here as well which is probably just as well. I don't see those that she questions for Phryne exactly opening up to the Honorable Miss Fisher like they do to the every-woman, practical Dot. A respectable women's magazine whose employees all seemed to be involved in sensationalist blackmail, nasty little secrets, and horribly wrong advice leads to the murder of one of its writers, Miss Lavender.

The secondary mystery of pirates and the kidnapping of Phryne's Chinese lover also kept my interest. I was rather surprised though, that she's apparently attached herself to one man.

Though there were a great many characters to keep track of, I still found this one a fun read.
