About this series
1917 Vienna.
Can Fiona catch a killer and find a decent cup of tea?
Fiona follows Fredrick Fredricks to Vienna where she gets caught up in a royal mess.
File clerk turned British agent, Fiona Figg, is more comfortable wearing a fake mustache than a ballgown.
When a royal ball ends with a royal body in the middle of the dance floor, Fiona trades her dancing slippers for practical oxfords and sets out to investigate.
As she tracks her nemesis, Fredrick Fredricks, from Vienna to the Austrian countryside, a hunting accident makes her rethink her loyalties.
Can Fiona prevent a killer from striking again, save her own skin, and find a decent cup of tea, all before the emperor realizes she’s a spy?
Praise for Villainy in Vienna by Kelly Oliver.

- Betrayal at Ravenswick: A Fiona Figg Mystery
1
Downton Abbey meets Agatha Christie in this entertaining series opener. What’s the best way to forget an unfaithful husband? Become a spy for British Intelligence, of course. “A good dose of humor while keeping the heartbreaking reality of war in the mix. This is one epic read.” – The Los Angeles Post Desperate to get out of London and determined to help the war effort, Fiona Figg volunteers to go undercover. It keeps her from thinking about Andrew, her philandering husband. At Ravenswick Abbey a charming South African war correspondent has tongues wagging. His friends say he’s a crack huntsman. The War Office is convinced he’s a traitor. Fiona thinks he’s a pompous prig. What sort of name is Fredrick Fredricks anyway? Too bad Fiona doesn’t own a Wolseley pith helmet. At Ravenswick a murderer is on the prowl, and it’s not just the big-game hunter who's ready to pounce. PRAISE FOR BETRAYAL AT RAVENSWICK “Take a plucky sleuth, a handsome soldier, a shady stranger, add mystery and a dash of espionage, shake well, and you have Betrayal at Ravenswick. Fans of traditional mysteries will root for Fiona Figg as she navigates the treachery of London and a seemingly bucolic English country manor at a time when everything in England was changing.” —Liz Milliron, author of The Homefront Mysteries “A truly masterful and mysterious web — as one mystery wraps up, an even bigger one appears offering more questions than answers. Oliver leaves her readers gasping on the final page, cursing the dastardly villain and marking their calendar for the release of the second Fiona Figg mystery, High Treason at the Grand Hotel. Perfect for fans of Downton Abbey and readers of Jacqueline Winspear’s Maisie Dobbs novels.” —BookTrib

2
Paris. 1917. Never underestimate the power of a good hat… or a sharp hatpin. Sent by the War Office to follow the notorious Fredrick Fredricks, file clerk turned secret agent Fiona Figg is under strict orders not to get too close and not to wear any of her usual “get-ups.” But what self-respecting British spy can resist a good disguise? Within hours of her arrival in Paris, Fiona is up to her fake eyebrows in missing maids, jewel thieves, double agents, and high treason. When Fiona is found dressed as a bellboy holding a bloody paperknife over the body of a dead countess, it’s not just her career that’s on the block. Her next date might be with Madame Guillotine. PRAISE FOR High Treason at The Grand Hotel by Kelly Oliver. “A clever mix of humor and espionage that will keep you turning the pages and laughing all the way!” —Dianne Freeman, author of the award-winning Countess of Harleigh mysteries. “The Fiona Figg mysteries are a perfect blend of wit, fun, and intrigue.” —Debra Goldstein, Author of the Sarah Blair Cozy Mysteries “Lushly layered in period detail, this historical mystery delivers twists and turns in a lighthearted tale of suspense and derring-do.”—Muddy Rose Reviews “A fun diversion with an entertaining female lead.” —Kirkus Reviews “A delightful romp through WWI Paris, rich with period detail, effervescent with British resourcefulness, and full of gentle humor reminiscent of early Hollywood zany comedies. A refreshing lark.” —Keenan Powell, author of the award-nominated Maeve Malloy Mysteries.
