Cocaine Blues

a Phryne Fisher Mystery
Jan 04, 2013Cecilturtle rated this title 3.5 out of 5 stars
Greenwood concocted a nice little mystery: I liked this story more for the ambiance, the characters and the description of the times than for the plot which is sometimes annoyingly breezy and tangled. The comments about feminism, communism and socialism, however, make this book interesting: a social commentary of the times, especially with the issues of abortion and drug abuse at the forefront. I will be getting back to Phryne Fisher's adventures: her sprightliness and defiance of conventions are definitely attractive!
