    I have got to be honest, I only picked up this book for nostalgic purposes and thus, didn’t actually have a whole lot of expectations - but this book definitely was a surprise.

    The Windsor Knot is actually a very snappy and clever title - it actually gives you a hint for the actual plotline - the Queen is having a little soirée in her home, The Windsor Castle with an eclectic collection of guests and believes it to be a success.

    Until the next morning, when The Queen is informed that a guest’s body was found in a very compromising position, though neither the staff nor the investigators believe it to be a little more than suicide.

    Beyond the actual investigation, The Windsor Knot is far more than just the investigation- its a look at a monarchy, the longest standing Queen in a world in a wholly different light.

    The mystery, and the characters within come together to give the readers an intriguing plot and a different insight into the Queen’s personality and working style that made it a wonderful read of a cozy mystery and intrigue.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A very interesting plot
    Reviewed in India on 27 October 2020
    A very innovative plot that involves Queen Elizabeth II solving crimes in secret while continuing to allow the various investigative agencies and everyone else to think of her as a frail, delicate woman who needs to be protected.
    A murder in Windsor castle causes the MI6 and police to think of various conspiracy theories involving spies and international relations, but that's not what the Queen believes. And she takes the help of her assistant private secretary Rozie to investigate on her own.
    The plot has humour that's typical of British wit and manages to thread in a mystery along with a portrait of life in the royal palace. Rozie, who is flummoxed in the beginning gradually gets into the act.
    The Queen as an investigator and her personal thoughts on various things that are told to her, including the pompous attitudes of some people who have no clue of her secret life and the extent of her understanding is genuinely funny.
    I enjoyed this one. A different read from the usual.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting plot
    Reviewed in India on 15 April 2021
    The plot is very unique, especially seeing the Queen solve the crime is very amusing. There's a lot that's happening, the police and the MI5 has a different trail of investigation while the Queen has her own doubts as to who the real murderer is.
    The problem is that it was a night of the party and straight away accusing any of the guests doens't sound good.
    The news of a man hanging naked to a knot in a wardrobe reaching out the press can also create chaos.
    The story moves very swiftly, unfortunately it didn't give me much to look forward to.
    It felt as if too much unnecessary information was provided that made little hurdles in the motion of the otherwise fast paced novel.

    I definitely had my doubts lurking in the wrong corners and the revelation of the culprit did surprise me but there were many loop holes in the story and hence the shock wasn't that great.
    The language is simple and easy to read, if you're really into solving the murder, the narration can keep you hitched to the story.
    But there were also many backstories in the novel and the attention sometimes was deflected.

    This was overall a good, one time read for me and it was nice reading about the Crown and how things work on the inside.
    I would recommend it to murder mystery lovers.

    I DNFed this book. I found it very difficult to read beyond the halfway mark. The book was dull and had to do less with the central mystery and more with singing praises of the queen and giving the readers 'insight' into her life. And while i did want to know the solution to the mystery, i wasn't willing tonwade through another half of the book filled with the queen's praises and details of her life and schedule to know the solution.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A Murder Mystery that is interesting and unique!
    Reviewed in India on 5 April 2021
    The plot of the story is quite innovative, and well plotted. The idea of Queen Elizabeth II being an investigator is refreshing and paves the way for an interesting series of stories to evolve. The storyline is well-told, with focus on details and vivid descriptions of people and events, along with reference to real life events and people, adding the touch of realism to the plot. The mystery is well shrouded, and the layers are well hidden as to unravel only when the time is right. However, there are places where the story becomes a bit stretched out and boring, especially the parts which are not very related to the murder mystery. While the plot does focus on solving the murder, there are places where the digression is quite apparent, specially when talking about horses etc. While these are important from the perspective of setting the stage, I believe some of the scenes could have been shortened. The climax is very well done, and the way the nudges have been used and implemented is commendable.

    This book was not the fluffy, light, cozy story that I was expecting. Rather, it is a well crafted book about a murder mystery in which the Queen happens to investigate and cleverly influence the solution. There is no gossip about the Royal Family and details about the Queen are respectful and add to the strong sense of setting and place. Good writing, worth reading.
