Publisher's Summary

Charlotte Holmes, Lady Sherlock, returns in the Victorian-set mystery series from the USA Today best-selling author of A Conspiracy in Belgravia and A Study in Scarlet Women, an NPR Best Book of 2016.

Under the cover of "Sherlock Holmes, consulting detective", Charlotte Holmes puts her extraordinary powers of deduction to good use. Aided by the capable Mrs. Watson, Charlotte draws those in need to her and makes it her business to know what other people don't.

When the estranged wife of her dear friend Lord Ingram is discovered dead on his estate, all signs point to him as the murderer. With Scotland Yard closing in, Charlotte goes under disguise to find out the truth.

The Dynamic Romantic Duo!

Sherry Thomas has a wonderful skill with writing.
Kate Reading conveys the richness to the characters and story.
The only exception to this book was grasping ALL the tie ins that were told in the last part of the book. Read and reread my friends!

Maybe my favourite so far out of the first three

This book had everything, murder, cross dressing, suspense & romance. Characters that we have gotten to know in the first two books are back in the third but with twists & turns.

Delightful!

A wonderful escape from a dreary time stuck at home. I have thoroughly enjoyed all four books and can hope for more in the future.

Another fun story.

So far Sherry Thomas is 3/3. The characters are fantastic, the story is great and the narrator is wonderful.

Love this Lady Sherlock series and Kate Reading

I love this series. I have in print and audible. Great wit, good plot, engaging writing. Kate Reading could narrate the fine print of my car insurance and I wouldn't tune out.

A wonderful story

Miss Charlotte Holmes has a very personal stake in her next murder. I found this historian mystery engaging and entertaining, holding my interest up to the end. The mystery was full of subtle clues, numerous plausible suspects, danger, intrigue and suspense. The characters are well crafted and full of quirky personalities complete with strengths and weaknesses. The storyline flows smoothly and quickly. I really enjoyed this book and look forward to more in the series.
