The Murder of Mary Russell

a Novel of Suspense Featuring Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes
Jun 17, 2016LauraSteinert rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
Stupid title. Stupid Library Journal review. The book is the history of Mrs. Hudson and is fascinating. The first half the book is often annoyingly interrupted with a fake-y "worry" that Mary Russell was injured or killed, and I couldn't have cared less as she clearly wasn't. That is not a spoiler as you will see when you read the mess the police made of the crime scene. None of this takes place at 221B Baker Street, again clearly, since Mary Russell was not even born when Holmes left that address. Ignore the reviews and title and just lose yourself in the discovery that you have long ignored one of the most interesting of all the Conan Doyle characters!
