Mord in Montparnasse

When Monsieur Anatole invites the shrewd detective Phryne Fisher to his restaurant, it is clear from the start that he will not only serve her his delicious onion soup, but also has a case for her: His fiancée has disappeared, and Phryne is to find out who kidnapped her. Phryne's cleverness is called for. All the clues lead to Paris - and Phryne back to her own past between the Spanish Flu, Rive Gauche and great feelings .... Glamorous, clever and independent, a modern woman and a shrewd detective - that is Miss Phryne Fisher. The wealthy English aristocrat settles in Melbourne in the wild 1920s, where she enjoys her single life to the fullest - and solves one murder case after another along the way. Not always to the delight of the local police.
