"Fans of the inimitable Phryne Fisher will rejoice in this cornucopia of short stories, recipes, lists of Phryne's favorite things, and other tidbits about the life of this female James Bond." --Historical Novel Society

A celebration of the divine Phryne Fisher, this special collectable treat for her fans is lavishly illustrated in full colour and includes all-new Phryne short stories, plus recipes and other miscellany, as well as elegant illustrations by Beth Norling.

The Phryne Fisher series (pronounced Fry-knee, to rhyme with briny) began in 1989 with Cocaine Blues. Now sixteen books later, there's no sign yet that Miss Fisher is hanging up her pearl-handled pistol.

If you're already a friend of Phryne, you'll fall in love all over again with this delightful collection. If you're meeting Phryne on these pages for the first time, you'll soon understand why it's futile to resist her charms.
