A Spoonful of Murder (Murder Most Unladylike #6)


For some reason, even though I follow her on Amazon, I had no clue that Robin Stevens had written more books in her Murder Most Unladylike series. Anywho, here is the sixth novel, "A Spoonful of Murder."

["When Hazel Wong's beloved grandfather passes away, Daisy Wells is all too happy to accompany her friend (and Detective Society Vice President) to Hazel's family estate in beautiful, bustling Hong Kong.

But when they arrive they discover something they didn't expect: there's a new member of the Wong family. Daisy and Hazel think baby Teddy is enough to deal with, but as always the girls are never far from a mystery. Tragedy strikes very close to home, and this time Hazel isn't just the detective. She's been framed for murder!

The girls must work together like never before, confronting dangerous gangs, mysterious suspects and sinister private detectives to solve the murder and clear Hazel's name - before it's too late..."]

I love these two, and I loooooove how Hazel has such a journey in this one. She became more independent and confident, and it suits her. It also helped that, for the first time in her life, Daisy wasn't in charge or the important one (which helped Daisy become more humble, in a good way).

Quote of the Day (Ah Lan//Daisy): ""You're only pretending to be detectives,' said Ah Lan, smiling again in the same scornful way. 'This is a game for you.' // 'Tell that we are detectives, and we have solved FIVE MURDER CASES!' snarled Daisy. I looked at her, astonished--apparently, she can tell when the Detective Society is being demeaned in any language."
