A brilliant premise, and delightful representation of Her Majesty, but I confess I got lost in the plot. The lovely portrayal of life in the palace (or Windsor Castle, usually) may have kept me so interested that I didn't pay much attention to the mystery. The hook is that the Queen solves the mystery, although of courses she must do so privately, using influence with her outcome rather than announcing it. But by the end I was impressed with her and really didn't care about the solution. ( ) A brilliant premise, and delightful representation of Her Majesty, but I confess I got lost in the plot.

But by the end I was impressed with her and really didn't care about the solution. A whodunnit solved by none other than QE II herself! Loved this story about how the Queen is secretly a master detective solving crimes while nobody is the wiser except for her trusted secretary (always a woman) This probably isn’t a book for everyone but if you know / care a bit about the royal family you’ll probably find it fun. I’m totally down for this to be a series. The Windsor Knot is the first in SJ Bennett's series of mysteries featuring Queen Elizabeth II as the detective, although she is careful to give the credit to others. It was a fun, behind-the-scenes look at life as a monarch, and her sidekick(s) were all women who, as they moved on, served as mentors for the next generation of personal assistants. Philip is present as a supportive, thoughtful spouse, the corgis are always under foot, but the rest of the family is only referenced in passing. I have the next two books in the series waiting for me. Again, perhaps sooner rather than later, while I still remember the characters and could actually be caught up with the series. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
