A Royal Winner submitted by kathscot on July 18, 2012, 9:00am A breezier style for this new character by Bowen. Georgie tries to make ends meet whilst keeping up appearances. But can she continue do so when a body appears in her bathtub and her clueless brother is blamed?

cute submitted by johnbiancke on March 19, 2015, 7:45pm Cute, light mystery

Post World War I submitted by BookNerd on July 10, 2017, 11:23pm A very minor royal in the late 1920s and early 1930s trying to make her way without disgracing her class.

Well written, with a lot of accurate historical and social detail. Bowen's excellent writing shines through.

Fun Read submitted by Kathleen McManus on August 25, 2022, 10:40am A delightful old-fashioned mystery with interesting characters and clever conversation.
