![]() ![]() Hazel is a little girl who stands out wherever she goes, and she’s very much aware of this, because her family is from Hong Kong. Last year they apparently started their very own Detective Society, when a murder at their school took place, which they managed to solve brilliantly! Daisy is a pretty blonde, with perfect teeth and manners, a little standoffish at times, but a great friend to Hazel. It’s nothing like Flavia de Luce as it turned out and it really is a children’s book, but it’s murder and mystery and tea, so overall, good fun.ĭuring their holidays from boarding school Deepdean School for Girls, best friends Hazel Wong and Daisy Wells spend the weekend at Daisy’s house to celebrate her fourteenth birthday. ‘Arsenic for Tea’ caught my attention with the title alone, and when the cover read that it’s about little girls getting involved with murder solving in 1930’s England, I was very hopeful! This is the second book in the series, but the books can be read on its own. I’ve never read any book like it and even though it’s a series with many novels, I couldn’t get enough. As I have now reviewed two books in the Flavia de Luce series, always with the highest praise, I think it’s obvious to most of our readers that I’m a big fan. ![]()
