This felt like a really low-anxiety Louise Penny novel - a great break from the world at large. It's a bit of a stretch in my brain to imagine the Queen as a detective, but with her unparalleled time on the throne I wouldn't be surprised if she helped other less competent people solve mysteries. The initial death in the novel reminded me of Downton Abbey - the Turkish gentleman - but only slightly less scandalous.
