Shes a household name, wrangling wayward husbands into repentance, seeing through deceptive clairvoyants, and rescuing young women (whether they like it or not) with the help of a five-foot cane and her sassy junior constable, <strong>Ethel Bromley</strong>.</p><p>When shop assistant <strong>Dora Black</strong> is found dead on a city beach, Miss Cocks and Ethel are ordered to stay out of the investigation and leave it to the men. But when Doras workmate goes missing soon after, the women suspect something sinister, and determine to take matters into their own hands. After all, who knows Adelaide better than the indomitable Miss Cocks?</p><p>In 1915, Fanny Kate Boadicea Cocks became the first policewoman in the British Empire employed on the same salary as men. This novel is a rich exploration of that little-known chapter of Australian history.</p><p><strong>Lainie Anderson has woven fact and fiction to create a crime fighting duo like no others, and I cant wait for the next instalment</strong> PIP WILLIAMS</p><p><strong>The perfect cosy read.
