S.J. Bennett writes mystery fiction with a premise that hooked readers immediately: Queen Elizabeth II as an amateur detective. The Her Majesty the Queen Investigates series launched in 2020 with The Windsor Knot and imagines the late Queen using her decades of experience, sharp eye for detail, and unmatched access to information to solve murders that happen in and around the royal residences.
Bennett has published five novels in the series along with shorter fiction. The books balance their crime plots with a warm, sometimes funny portrayal of palace life and the Queen’s dry wit. The series has drawn comparisons to classic British cozy mysteries while carving out its own niche with its unique protagonist.
