About the Book

The sassy Phryne Fisher sets the seamy side of Sydney alight in her tenth adventure. Phryne Fisher has plans for her Sydney sojourn, but they begin to go awry when Phryne's maid discovers her thoroughly respectable sister Joan has left her family for the murky nightlife on the Cross, and then postponed again because Phryne is definitely not the woman to say 'no' when two delightful young men are on their knees, begging for her help in finding their friend innocent of theft. It all sounds simple enough as Phryne sets investigations into motion. But when greed and fear are the motivating factors, people become ruthless and Phryne quickly finds herself enmeshed in blackmail, secrets, lies and the dangerous influences of deep magic.

About the Author :
Kerry Greenwood (1954–2025) was a lawyer and the bestselling Australian author of more than fifty novels, a book of short stories, six non-fiction works, and the editor of two collections of crime writing. Her beloved Phryne Fisher series became a successful ABC TV series, Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, which sold around the world, and later inspired the spin-off series Ms Fisher's Modern Murder Mysteries. She was also the author of the contemporary crime series featuring Corinna Chapman, baker and reluctant investigator. In addition, Kerry wass the author of several books for young adults and the Delphic Women series. Alongside her writing, for many years Greenwood continued to advocate in magistrates' courts for the Legal Aid Commission and, in the 2020 Australia Day Honours, was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for services to literature. She never married nor had children, but lived for many years with an accredited wizard. Stephanie Daniel spent several years acting in theatre, television and film in the UK and Europe and dubbing films into English in Munich, Paris and Rome. In Australia she has recorded countless audiobooks. Her television appearances include Mercury and Something in The Air. Films Stephanie has appeared in include The Castle and in the theatre in her acclaimed portrait of Jane Austen.

Review :
"Pure indulgence ... a 1920s heroine for the 90s ... a fast and elegant read." "Phyrne Fisher has solved quite a few mysteries during her career. Here a holiday trip to Sydney is just what she needs for some R&R. But when her personal maid's sister goes missing and she agrees to defend a young man for theft, she finds herself smack-dab in the midst of black magic, deceit, violence, and murder. Stephanie Daniel proves to be Phyrne's equal. Daniel's narration reveals an intelligent woman, always on par with any male counterpart. The colorful characters, whether professors or men of the underworld, are portrayed impeccably. Clever, witty, and filled with gusto, Greenwood's novel, as delivered by Daniel, is an exciting whodunit."
