Reseñas de la Crítica

"Hilarious, affectionate and so well observed.... I loved it." (Joanne Harris, best-selling author of Chocolat)

"Bracingly fresh yet endearingly familiar, The Windsor Knot gallops along at a cracking pace, is laugh-out-loud funny and completely convincing, peppered with delicious royal detail and in-jokes. Priceless and charming - a jewel in the crown." (Veronica Henry, Sunday Times best-selling author)

Great fun!

I really enjoyed this book. Beautifully performed by Samantha Bond. A clever story and lots of fun having the Queen as the detective along with Rosie. I found it quite plausible to imagine the Queen seeing and knowing much more than the silly officials around her 🙂.
