Helpful Score: 1

Another fine book about Sherlock Holmes and his nineteen-year-old apprentice, Mary Russell. The year is 1918, and the couple are forced to flee England for British-occupied Palestine. While there they are called on to solve a rash of murders. Laurie R. King does a wonderful job with feisty Mary Russell's character. If you love strong women in demanding roles you will love these books. Other titles include the Beekeeper's Apprentice, A Monstrous Regiment of Women, A Letter of Mary, The Moor, and O Jerusalem.
