The indefatigable Miss Phryne Fisher returns to solve what may be her most puzzling murder. When Phryne Fisher is invited to Bendigo to witness the investiture of her old friend Lionel, who is being made a Bishop, her expectations of the solemn and dignified ceremony do not include a murder. Phryne is soon working with perspicacious local Constable Watson and eagle-eyed Inspector Mick Kelly to identify the perpetrator. It becomes quickly apparent the murder victim had been an overzealous deacon with a nose for trouble. Nobody seems very inclined to mourn his passing. Applying her quick wits and magnetic charm, Phryne and her expanding team of sleuths discover murky layers of church politics, social scandals and business scams and blackmail. Soon, various suspects begin to form a long list, all with excellent motives for killing the deacon. Could the murderer be his own wife? A visiting dignitary? The mysterious organist? The angelic Brookes? The unemployed teacher? And why is the Bishop's Court being burgled? Meanwhile the clock is ticking ... Will Phryne be able to bring to light the proof she needs before the killer strikes again or disappears completely?

The Honourable Miss Phryne Fisher is up to her elegant eyebrows in mystery once again Awakening unusually early one morning, Phryne Fisher finds herself with a rare stretch of free time to fill. After dropping her daughters off for their school-sponsored charity work at the Blind Institute, she visits a university professor whose acquaintance she'd made--and admired--on a prior case. At lunch, the smitten professor invites Phryne to dine at his home in Williamstown later that week. Bookending her pleasant dinner with her new friend Jeoffrey, Phryne makes two disturbing discoveries: first, a discarded opium pipe in the park, and later the body of a Chinese man on the beach--cause of death not apparent, yet ultimately ruled a homicide. Shortly thereafter, the teenaged sister-in-law of Phryne's longtime lover Lin Chung disappears from her home. But when one of Jeoffrey's colleagues is murdered in front of a houseful of guests at a Chinese-themed party he is hosting, Phryne can't help but wonder--are the incidents all related somehow? And who on earth has been leaving notes in her letterbox, warning her to "REPENT" and that "THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH"--?In addition to the formidable and fashionable Phryne, this clever mystery once again features Phryne's three wards with their own mysteries to solve: Ruth and Jane, tracking an embezzler at the Institute, and Tinker, whose help Phryne enlists to uncover the author of the threatening missives.

At vandre rundt på vingerne af et Tiger Moth-fly i fuld fart ville være spænding nok for de fleste mennesker, men ikke for Phryne – amatørdetektiv og gådefuld kvinde, så indbydende som den fineste chokolade og så skarp som en ragekniv. Denne gang får 1920’ernes mest talentfulde og glamourøse detektiv virkelig noget at se til, da hun skal håndtere både et mord, en kidnapning og den sædvanlige portion smukke, unge mænd med stil og lethed. Og hun klarer da også det hele – endda før det er tid til at indtage morgenmaden på Queenscliff Hotel. Uanset om hun flyver, renser en ven for drabsanklager eller redder et barn, så gør Phryne det med den samme lethed og livfuldhed, som når hun fører sin røde Hispano-Suiza. “Phryne kan ikke få nok af eventyr, og læseren kan ikke få nok af Phryne.”– Deadly Pleasures Om Kokainblues: ”Hvis du har tid til overs til dig selv, så anbefaler jeg kraftigt, at du mikser en cocktail, tænder en smøg og åbner Kokainblues. Det er god underholdning for alle pengene.” – Smart Bitches Uddrag af bogen ”Okay, hun er på de halvtreds,” sagde Bill og tog kontrollen. ”Hold hendes vinger ret flade,” råbte Phryne. Flyet fandt balancen og fløj ganske glat. Phryne tog fat i en stiver og fik det ene knæ op på den øverste vinge. Inden den forbløffede Bill nåede at råbe, var hun kommet helt op og gik roligt langs vingen, mens han nænsomt rullede flyet lidt for at kompensere for hendes vægt. Sveden løb ned ad panden og ind i hans øjne. Hun havde nået enden af vingen. Hun vendte om for at gå tilbage. Phryne lod vinden slå mod sig med glæde. Den var ikke værre end i en racerbil, og Mothen var snøret med stivere af passende størrelse, som man kunne kile en tå ind i. Hun vinkede til gruppen på jorden og gik langsomt tilbage og bemærkede, at hendes pilot håndterede tiltet elegant. Om forfatteren Kerry Greenwood voksede op i Melbourne, Australien og uddannede sig til jurist. Ved siden af jobbet som advokat har hun skrevet en lang række krimier, romaner og ungdomsbøger, for hvilke hun har modtaget flere priser. Mest kendt er hendes krimiserie om Phryne Fisher, der også er blevet lavet til en tv-serie, som har været vist i over 100 lande. På dansk er tidligere udkommet Kokainblues.

Da Phryne Fisher beslutter sig til at tage til Ballarat i en uge, vælger hun togets rolige sikkerhed frem for sin elskede Hispano-Suiza. Men mens passagererne sover, bliver de alle udsat for kloroformforgiftning. Da morgenen gryr, må Phryne undersøge alle sporene: en ung pige, der lider af hukommelsestab, liget af en gammel kvinde, der mangler sine smaragdringe, og rygter om hvid slavehandel og sort magi. Hun har travlt, hvis hun skal afdække sandheden, inden et nyt mord finder sted. “Phryne kan ikke få nok af eventyr, og læseren kan ikke få nok af Phryne.” – Deadly Pleasures Uddrag af bogen Motoren standsede; hun hørte fløjten og en mærkelig bumpende lyd forrest i førsteklassevognen. Der kom en bølge af damp, og toget begyndte at køre igen, så Phryne næsten styrtede i knæ, da hun stadig var temmelig vakkelvorn. Stadig med host og opkast åbnede hun vinduet ved det unge par og derefter ved moderen og børnene. Endelig nærmede hun sig den første kupe, og lugten var stærk nok, til at det sved i hendes øjne. Hun puttede det våde lommetørklæde på igen, plettede sit ansigt med te, dykkede ind og stod stirrende. Ledsageren lå fladt på gulvet med en spildt kop ved sin hånd, men vinduet var allerede åbent, og den gamle dame var væk. Phryne gjorde derefter noget, som hun altid havde haft lyst til at gøre. Hun trak i nødbremsen, så hårdt hun kunne. Toget hvinede til et tilfredsstillende stop, og en togmedarbejder kom løbende, rev døren åben til spisevognen og begyndte med det samme at hoste. ”Trak du i nødbremsen, frøken?” spurgte han. ”For himlens skyld, hvad er der sket her?” ”Kloroform,” sagde Phryne. ”Hjælp mig med at få dem ud i den friske luft.” Om forfatteren Kerry Greenwood voksede op i Melbourne, Australien og uddannede sig til jurist.
