On World Book Day Robin Stevens brings us a short Detective Society story at the seaside. When a famous swimmer shows up dead on the beach smelling of soap, the Detective Society must team up with the Junior Pinkertons to solve the murder and get back to their summer holiday.
I really enjoyed just setting aside a short amount of time to just sit down and read ‘The Case Of The Drowned Pearl’ in one go. It was a nice, short, easy read and it was great getting to see a murder investigated from a new angle, with the chapters alternating between Daisy and Hazel’s perspectives.
I can’t wait to read the next Murder Most Unladylike book, although it will be sad bidding a fond farewell to the Detective Society.

Funnier than I expected (0 more)
Over the top stunts, even by Fast & Furious standards (0 more)
Decent spin-off
I was a bit surprised when I heard this spin off from Fast and Furious was being made. I guess it fills a gap between the next one. This delivers what you expect. Plenty of over the top action and unrealistic stunts, along with a fair bit of banter between the lead characters. There are some memorable scenes, the chase through London was great. The plots are slowly getting more absurd though. There are also some nice cameos you wouldn't expect. It was funnier than I thought it would be which was a bonus. If you like the Fast & Furious films you should enjoy this as well, although you can leave your brain in neutral.

Nice flow to the album (0 more)
No real stand-out tracks (0 more)
You hear the beat of the first track and you know it's going to be a good Underworld album. This whole album seems to be more beat/bass focused than their more melodic ones, but it works well. Starts off quite energetic and bright at the beginning, then allows down and has a darker feel for tracks 4 and 5 before lightening up again towards the end. I didn't really dislike any tracks, although preferred the more energetic ones, but also nothing really stood out, unlike previous albums where there have been one or two tracks that I just love listening to again and again. If I had to pick a favourite track it would be the first one, "I Exhale".
