Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries

Author: Kerry Greenwood
Publisher: Australian Broadcasting Corporation ; Pyrmont, N.S.W.: Roadshow Entertainment [distributor], c2012.
(DVD)


The suggested reading – or viewing – here is the fabulous flapper sleuth of 1920s & 1930s Melbourne high society, Miss Phryne Fisher. She is an independent and strong character who is renowned for her sharp wit, keen deductive reasoning, and of course her sensationally stylish attire. Additionally, she can fly a plane, drive a car, deftly metes justice with her pearl-handled pistol, and prefers lovers to marriage – she is a feminist James Bond long before 007’s time.
