Greenwood s strength lies in her ability to create characters that are wholly satisfying: the bad guys are bad, and the good guys are great Vogue
1929: Girls are going missing in Melbourne. Little, pretty golden-haired girls. And not just pretty. Three of them are pregnant, poor girls from the harsh confines of the Magdalene Laundry. People are getting nervous.
Polly Kettle, a pushy, self-important Girl Reporter with ambition and no sense of self-preservation, decides to investigate - and promptly goes missing herself. It s time for Phryne and Dot to put a stop to this and find Polly Kettle before something quite irreparable happens to all of them. It s all piracy and dark cellars, convents and plots, murder and mystery . . . and Phryne finally finds out if it s true that blondes have more fun.
