Description
In the glittering world of 1920s Melbourne, the Honourable Phryne Fisher, an independent and glamorous private detective, finds herself drawn into a tangled web of family secrets and simmering resentments. When a desperate mother begs Phryne to intervene in a volatile father-son feud, the detective must navigate a dangerous path between loyalty and suspicion. As Phryne delves deeper, she uncovers a conspiracy far more complex than a simple domestic dispute, testing her wit and courage against a backdrop of societal expectations and hidden desires. Greenwood's signature blend of sharp dialogue, stylish settings, and compelling mystery makes this a thrilling installment in the beloved Phryne Fisher series.
