SJ Bennett – Death in Diamonds
It is 1957 and the young Elizabeth II, returning from her first trip to Paris as sovereign of the United Kingdom, is informed of a double murder: a man and a woman were killed in a pied-à-terre frequented by some members of the Artemis Club, an exclusive group of English high society of which Prince Philip himself is a member.

The last thing the young Elizabeth, who is working hard for her country to have a relevant role in post-war Europe, needs is a scandal involving her. Of course, she can count on her father’s old secretaries, who have always supported her efficiently: but can she really trust them?
As the investigation into the murder continues, Elizabeth understands that she can no longer face these challenges alone: so, when she meets former cryptographer Joan McGraw, she decides to hire her as an assistant and discover for herself what is behind the crime.
