Water-themed Mystery (Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries Book 15)

Streaming now on Netflix is Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, starring Essie Davis as the sophisticated and honorable Phryne Fisher. As memories of the Titanic linger among the passengers on a luxury cruise, readers are treated to descriptions of lavish meals, glimpses of Maori folklore, and an enticing mystery. Those who yearn to indulge in a glamorous and flawed past will not be disappointed, according to Publishers Weekly.

The gentlemen at P&O are concerned about a series of jewelry thefts targeting first-class passengers, which is not ideal for their cruise's reputation. It seems likely that one of the passengers is the culprit. Phryne Fisher, with her chic bob haircut, captivating green eyes, distinctive cupid's bow lips, and belief in the ends justifying the means, is the perfect candidate to infiltrate the upper class and tackle a case of theft at sea—the S.S. Hinemoa, to be exact—during a luxurious voyage to New Zealand. She carries the valuable Great Queen of Sapphires, the Maharani, as bait.

Onboard, there are romantic entanglements, bubbly cocktails, scandalous photographers, jealous suitors, spiked drinks, talented jazz musicians, extortion, and attempted murder. It's all part of the chaos before the thieves realize, like many love-struck men before them, that resisting the charming and intelligent Phryne is futile.
