Synopsis

The rich and famous are converging on the iconic Savoy Hotel in swinging '60s London—including a famous Broadway producer with anger issues, a demanding Indian raja, and a gorgeous film star with certain kinky predilections. All is as it should be—until the murder of a showgirl threatens to scandalize the hotel. The list of suspects includes Priscilla Tempest, the trouble-prone Canadian head of the Savoy press office. Clearing her name would be easy enough, if only she hadn’t spent the night of the murder with a certain beguiling Canadian prime minister. Blackmailed by a Scotland Yard detective, wooed by a notorious gangster, and hounded by the press, Priscilla must use wit and resourcefulness to survive the treacherous upper echelons of London society and find a killer.

Arf. J'avais tellement aimé le tome 1, on peut dire que je suis déçue. Pourtant on retrouve toutes les qualités du premier : personnages hauts en couleur, humour, situations rocambolesques, ambiance des 60's...

L’humour est toujours présent, l’enquête tient en haleine jusqu’au bout, et il y a toujours une multitude de rebondissements. Pas mal, en somme! Beaucoup d’informations dans ce tome......more
