I very much enjoyed Unnatural Habits by Kerry Greenwood which was a "Miss Fisher mystery". I've enjoyed the ABC1 television series "Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries", but had not read any of the books till now. It was published in 2012 so the characters are well established and I like Miss Phryne Fisher very much - a very classy lady who can mix with people from any background. In this story she investigates the disappearance of three heavily pregnant teenagers last seen at a place where they were to give birth to their babies after working in the laundry of a convent. Miss Fisher is appalled by the treatment of these girls. Also missing is a young female reporter who was investigating the disappearance of young blonde girls. The story is well-written and having watched the TV series, the characters really come to life as I read. 4/5
