DEATH BEFORE WICKET

Kerry Greenwood

‘A joy to read’—

‘Phryne Fisher saves the day again’—
The Mercury

When Phryne Fisher takes off on the Manly ferry with two delightful young men, her faithful maid Dorothy breathes a sigh of relief. No murders to deal with, and a relaxed and pleasant stay in sunny Sydney. Phryne has plans to see the cricket Test match, dine with the Vice Chancellor at Sydney University and attend the Artist’s Ball with an up-and-coming young modernist.

Phryne quickly finds herself enmeshed in a world of blackmail, secrets, lies and the dangerous influences of deep magic.
