When Hazel Wong's beloved grandfather passes away, Daisy Wells is all too happy to accompany her friend (and Detective Society Vice President) to Hazel's family estate in beautiful, bustling Hong Kong.

But when they arrive they discover something they didn't expect: there's a new member of the Wong family. Daisy and Hazel think baby Teddy is enough to deal with, but as always the girls are never far from a mystery. Tragedy strikes very close to home, and this time Hazel isn't just the detective. She's been framed for murder!

The girls must work together like never before, confronting dangerous gangs, mysterious suspects and sinister private detectives to solve the murder and clear Hazel's name - before it's too late . . .

Critic reviews

Fabulous
Superb
In this sixth instalment of the spellbinding Murder Most Unladylike series, the usual jolly-hockey-sticks tone has matured into something richer . . . Gloriously scenic
Carries the Murder Most Unladylike mysteries into new heights . . . meticulously plotted and consistently delightful, and I can't recommend it enough
Stevens' combination of meticulous research, character development and a knotty plot is guaranteed to please
Stevens' writing and plotting is sharper than ever
All stars

the book was so interesting and amazing and now I generally want to got the Hong Kong and visit all the places talked about in the book

THE BEST THING EVER

I liked it but I found it quite hard going and was glad when I finished it. But what I did like about it was different and I think it was really good for Daisy to not be the leader of everything. Hazel should be leader/Sherlock
(Three and a half out of five for story but I put 4/5).
I quite liked the reader.
