REVIEW

FEDORA WALKS - Merrilee Moss

Reviewed By
Karen Chisholm

There are simply not enough of these short novella books being published these days.  Not only do they give you a real taste of (frequently) lesser known writers, they are perfect little handbag books - stocking stuffers if you want.  FEDORA WALKS could definitely stuff the stocking of a lot of readers. If you're fans of the supernatural, if you're a fan of theatricals, if you're a lover of lesbian fiction (crime or not), or if you simply want something funny to fill in a few pleasant hours, then FEDORA WALKS is a great little book.

Now I'm not much of a shoe shopper, but that doesn't apply to hats.  I like hats.  I really really really like hats.  And I did like FEDORA WALKS, even though I spent most of the book wondering why. Sure it's a bit odd.  Well really - you can't imagine that a story about an out-of-work detective lusting after (and working for) the ghostly figure of her grandmother's lesbian lover wouldn't be a little odd!  Who cares.  It was light-hearted, it had some serious laugh out loud moments, and it will make you look at hats in a whole different way.  And blue heeler puppies. And mothers-in-law.

When the ghostly Fedora interrupts Julie Bernard's coffee in Brunswick Street, Julie's life is set to change...

An out-of-work PI, Julie is seduced by Fedora's French accent and beautiful hats, but soon discovers that wearing gorgeous millinery is a dangerous activity.

A satirical take on lesbian crime fiction, with a spectacular mix of fantasy and otherworldly theatricals, Merrilee Moss makes us laugh out loud.
