A Death in Diamonds by S.J. Bennett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1957. The body of a female escort, wearing a diamond tiara, is discovered with an older dead man, in a bedroom of a mews house near Buckingham Palace. But how and why were they killed and by whom. Inspector Fred Darbishire investigates but the Queen takes an interest with the help from her APS Joan McGraw. But is someone trying to undermine the Queen.
A well-written and entertaining historical mystery, the first I have read of this series which can easily be read as a standalone story with its interesting characters.
An ARC was provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
