Kerry Greenwood's The Castlemaine Murders
This was seriously the most random Phryne Fisher book yet as she discovers the mummy of a murdered man at a carnival and decides to find out who he was. It should be a simple cold case, but soon she's getting all sorts of threats. Meanwhile, her Chinese paramour is trying to discover what happened to some stolen gold from the 1850s. And Phryne's sister has some to visit, and she's a very trying houseguest. The plot is entirely predictable, but surprisingly funny somehow. B+.
