A while back, I had a review copy of
The Lady with the Gun Asks the Questions, which is a collection of Phryne Fisher short stories by Kerry Greenwood. And, although I'm usually not a huge fan of mystery short stories, since I often feel that there just isn’t time to develop much of an investigation, I really enjoyed these. Phryne and Melbourne are as much the stars as the stories themselves, even in the shorter ones, and a couple of the longer ones are really treats. Kerry Greenwood’s note at the beginning of this collection of short stories, letting readers in on how she “discovered” The Honourable Phryne Fisher was an unexpectedly fun bonus. And finally, FWIW, the title has also gone on my list of favorite mystery titles - favorites just for the titles, irrespective of how good/bad the books are.
And,
