Heather's Reviews > A Letter of Mary

This excellent series has really hooked me! Laurie R. King hits another home-run with A Letter of Mary. This time Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes (now married!) have to work together to solve the mystery of who killed an intelligent, independent, well-liked and respected older archeologist the day after she visits the Holmes home and leaves them with a beautiful and mysterious gift. The plot is all a mystery lover could want, with lots of twists and turns, red-herrings, multiple suspects and intriguing detection. Again, religion and the theme of women in society plays takes center stage. I suggest starting with book one. Recommended for those who love smartly written, intelligent mysteries.
