Enjoyed

Characters are likable and the story is well conceived. An excellent read. I’m looking forward to reading another in the series.

This was a bit more introspective than the other books, but I rather liked that! It was quieter and more focused on Phryne than the murder, though there were still two mysteries here to solve. Unfortunately, my library copy seems to have been one published with the last chapter and a half missing, and I had to buy the ebook just so I could finish reading it! Still not at all bad overall.

I did prefer the TV episode of this one, but then again I have preferred the TV show over the books up to this point.

Phryne is at the Green Mill dance hall, dancing for a while with the members of a competitors in a dance marathon. When she trips over the body of one of the competitors, realises that it's murder and investigates. This leads her into family secrets and lives of some people that they want kept secret.

All in all it's a fun read, I like seeing a slightly different view of the characters from the TV series but overall it's interesting and adds to them. It didn't lead me to rush out for the next one but didn't make me want to avoid them either.
