Brilliant!
I raced through this book. It is witty and clever and extremely well written.
The idea seems a little preposterous at first but the premise works so well. The Queen of England, ably supported by her newest member of staff, embarks on solving a murder that occurred within Windsor Castle.
The characters are brilliant, the Queen and Prince Phillip are written perfectly and I love the supporting cast. All the fabulous, clever women who help to solve this murder while certain men blunder about! While appearing to be a light hearted funny murder mystery, this book also touches on important issues such as racism and sexism.
I love the idea of the Queen quietly solving a murder while everyone else is oblivious to her input!
This book had me chuckling throughout and I look forward to the next! Or perhaps the the prequels as it seems Her Majesty has been a sleuth since she was 12!
