Description
The nice men at P&O are worried. A succession of jewellery thefts from first class passengers is hardly the best advertisement for their cruise liners, particularly when it is likely that it is a passenger who is doing the stealing. Phryne Fisher, with her Lulu bob, green eyes, Cupid's bow lips and Chanel travelling suits, is exactly the sort of elegant sleuth to take on a ring of jewellery thieves aboard the high seas - or at least, aboard the SS Hinemoa on a luxury cruise to New Zealand. With the Maharani - the Great Queen of Sapphires - as the bait, Phryne rises magnificently to the challenge. There are shipboard romances, champagne cocktails, erotic photographers, jealous husbands, mickey finns, blackmail and attempted murder, all before the thieves find out - as have countless love-smitten men before them - that where the glamorous and intelligent Phryne is involved, resistance is futile.
I bought it for my mum's birthday and she loves it. It has good information and images explaining things in excellent detail. It arrived well packaged and in new condition as advertised. Simplybestprices was the cheapest I found on the internet, so I went with them. The only negative was with the shipping, not the product. I ordered in Dec 2024 and it took many weeks before getting shipping details and then the delivery date kept changing and moving later. It eventuallly arrived early Feb.
This arrived today in excellent, clean condition and was carefully packed & dispatched. A very useful resource to get started on researching the needs of aging parents. There are four parts to this book. It addresses "at-home" care, residential care, finances and sources. Glossary included. I think this is good value for money and a great way to start targeted research. Knowing the questions to ask is the first thing (for me ) & is helpful. Great seller! Good communication. Thankyou.
A great collection of poetry that was very reasonably priced! The book arrived quicker than expected and was packaged carefully and thoughtfully. The item was exactly as described. I highly recommend this seller and would happily buy through them again. Thank you for a pleasant transaction!
