Summary

When Patricia returned the missing sapphire of Zangrabar, she had no idea the maharaja would consider himself eternally in her debt. Hardly surprising then that she has been invited to his son’s coronation as the new maharaja.

There’s intrigue and mystery afoot, though. The Marahaja’s invite suggested he had a mystery for her to solve, but in true Patricia style, it’s nowhere near that simple. Someone in Zangrabar wants her dead, but they didn’t count on the tenacity of her friends and the loyalty of her butler. Beware wrongdoers, Patricia is getting used to ruining nefarious plans.

However, with her friends going missing, secretive servants, lies and unexplained events, it’s soon time for Patricia to ditch the willing smiles and go full sleuth mode.

Get ready for adventure in the desert as Patricia and her entourage take on a secret mission that will place them in the middle of a perilous conspiracy and may cost them more than they want to pay.

Very entertaining

Review of audiobook. Mystery, action and humour, Patricia Fisher mysteries have it all. They are a little far-fetched and the plot twists are predictable, but these books are so much fun. Having read books 1–6, this is the first Patricia Fisher book I have listened to. The narration was excellent.
I received this from the author with no obligation to review.

Definitely worth listening to!

This is the first one of Steve Higgs mysteries I have listened too. I usually read them.
I loved the narrator, she definitely bought out the best aspects of Patty and her crew. Whilst listening I am enthralled and have to know if I too have solved the mystery. I want to know if Anna secretly had a doggy affair with the Queen’s corgis? These books remind me of Miss Marple but in a different day and age. They will definitely leave you with a smile on your face.

Another hit!

I usually get a little frustrated when books seem to jump the shark, going so crazily out of the realistic zone, but—even though this plot should have felt that way—it just didn’t. It totally worked for me. I really really liked it!
And the mix of new characters as well as a sort of reunion of a good deal of the old ones made this special.

The narrator was very good, and did the ambassador so perfectly!

Totally moving on to the next. Like right now after I type the last period here.

clever lady

interesting mystery with lots of twists and turns, ...colorful characters, smart heroine who might not be a 20 year old but isn't ancient either and is practical and unflappable. the narrator is perfect and does a wonderful job on different voices. ..very enjoyable listen.

Another uproarious mystery for Patricia to solve

Patricia Fisher is off on another cruise on the Aurelia. Her friend, Barbie, has a role in an action movie being filmed on the ship. Barbie is highly attractive, so it’s no surprise when the leading man takes an interest. What is a shock is when he’s discovered dead and a note threatening Barbie is found. What’s Patricia to do? With bodyguards set to protect Barbie, Patricia gets to work to find the killer.

As always, uproarious events ensue in this third book in the Patricia Fisher mystery series. It’s filled with surprises. As with the others in this series, it’s easily read as a stand-alone book. It has enough twists and turns to keep you involved, interested, and laughing out loud.

I received a free copy of this book from the author through Audible. I thank all involved for their generosity, but it had no effect on this review. All opinions in this review reflect my true and honest reactions to reading this book.
