On to something I know I'll enjoy -- Dead Man's Chest, by Kerry Greenwood. This is number 18 of the Phryne Fisher series, and it's already starting out well. What a joy to come back to something really well written.
Loved it. Definitely a good one in this exemplary series. I love that we're seeing more than just Phryne, here. So much of these stories are about the other characters, and in this one Ruth and Jane play bigger roles. And now there's Tinker. So this one gets 5 stars on my list, and I think I'll stick with Australia and read Outback, by Aaron Fletcher next.
