Flicks of humor, danger and suspense zip through this entertaining historical tale as Aunt Fiona Figg and Kittie Lane, along with Poppy-poo, strike again, this time in Moscow. The setting time frame involves the time Russia pulled out of the war (WWI). The murder of the Cheka chief turns things up a notch and the protagonists must scurry.
There are several true-to-life characters personified within this tale with others such as Archie and Frederick Fredericks garnered along side them and whom we meet again here from the first and second books in this Fiona Figg and Kittie Lane mystery series.
Murder in Moscow has been an enjoyable read that ended with a satisfactory smile upon my face. Although this novel can thrive as a stand alone work, anyone who likes Sherlock Holmes-like detecting will most likely like this third-in-a-series saga and wish they'd also read the previous offerings just as cleverly orchestrated by authoress Kelly Oliver.
Three cheers and a 4-Star rating from me.
