A great book on fandom essays since a lot of books on fandom are usually on one side of fandom.

Loved the miss Fisher show so I had to start reading her books. I will definitely recommend the show or books to anyone who wants a nice 1920s mystery but in a different setting like Australia or New Zealand

It’s been a while since a mystery novel kept me guessing on who did it. Like my head was spinning with all the plot twists. 

 I gasped at least three times. If you love miss Fisher and a main character who’s tone fits a classic pulp mystery novel with more women as leading characters I would gives this book to you personally.
