This is the second installment of Laurie King's Mary Russel-Sherlock Holmes story. In this book, there is a more sharpened focus on the societal commentary on post-WWI England, specifically, women's voting rights, religion (specifically Judaism and Christian cults). A romantic relationship begins to develop between Holmes and Russel.
