The Queens of Crime by Marie Benedict

How can a lady's detective group prove that they are as good as a group of male detectives?

In the year 1931 women were deemed not as capable as men.


The Queens of Crime decided that if they could solve a "real life" murder, they would be respected.


They all asked themselves where could they find a real life murder to investigate and lo and behold a body of a young woman assumed to have disappeared was found.


They were on the case.


The book dragged and wasn’t a book I was anxious to get back to. 


Gorgeous, pull-you-in cover, but I was disappointed because I normally enjoy Ms. Benedict's books. 3/5


Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this book.  All opinions are my own.

  1. Sorry this was less than you'd hope for, Elizabeth. Sounded like a good premise.
