Death at Victoria Dock

In this installment of the Phryne Fisher series, the sharp-witted and unconventional detective investigates the suspicious death of a young anarchist found at Victoria Dock. The case pulls Phryne into the volatile world of political extremists and radical movements in 1920s Melbourne, where ideological fervor masks personal vendettas and criminal intent. As she navigates the murky waters of dockside politics, Phryne must distinguish between genuine revolutionary passion and calculated murder, all while maintaining her characteristic blend of charm, defiance, and moral clarity.
