Some of her adventures are created on the Orient Express, in Hong Kong, and even on a cruise along the River Nile in Egypt. Robin Stevens is a very good writer because her stories are so awesome that you feel like you are right there in the book. It’s really interesting watching how the girls’ friendship changes over the course of the series and how Hazel gets bolder. A Spoonful of Murder is set in Hong Kong, where Hazel is from and being there makes Hazel much more confident than she usually is, and Daisy is shyer. Daisy usually leads everything they do and can’t stand being overlooked by grown-ups. Their detective agency is called the Wells & Wong detective society. Daisy is a really funny, impatient person whereas Hazel is more quiet and thoughtful. The books are set in the 1930s, and most are written in Hazel’s perspective. I would strongly recommend starting with the first book, because if you read them out of order then things might not make much sense and there might be some spoilers of the previous crimes. After that, suspicious deaths seem to follow them around! There are nine books in the MMU series, plus three mini mysteries as well. Murder Most Unladylike is about schoolgirl detectives, Daisy Wells and Hazel Wong, who solve a murder at their boarding school, Deepdean, which is in the English countryside.
