Murder in Moscow A BRAND NEW page-turning historical cozy mystery from Kelly Oliver for 2024

 This was a fun, light-hearted romp through revolutionary Moscow featuring Fiona Figg and her ‘niece’ Kitty. Fiona has gone to Moscow in search of the German spy Frederick Fredericks, her charming caddish love interest. But she can’t find him and ends up in dire straits. Kitty, another operative, comes to the rescue with her intrepid little dog Poppy but they are both chased by the Cheka and they also have to try and find a mole in the fight to save the Tsar.

I studied Russian history at uni so I loved the setting of this book and all the real-life English and Russian characters portrayed in it, such as Countess Natasha, married to Michael, the Tsar’s brother. I prefer mysteries with more realistic heroines though so I am not sure if I will read another one in the series. I will definitely have a look and see, though.

I received this free ebook from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
