Another fun jaunt with Mary Russell and her husband, Sherlock Holmes. We get a lot more Sherlock in this adventure than in the previous few books in the series.

I love this series and this book is no exception. This time, Holmes and Mary are off to Bran Castle in Transylvania at the bequest of the queen. They must solve the mysterious threat to her only daughter before things escalate.
The multiple mysteries are a real treat. Is there really a ghost in the castle? Who sent the letter to the queen? Is someone pretending to be the ghost of a local soldier to scare the castle maids? The author layers all of these together into one exquisite, heart-thumping tale. She kept me on my toes. As soon as I thought I figured out one mystery, she threw another at me.
I will recommend this series to all my mystery-loving friends. Thank you NetGally and Random House Publishing Group for the chance to read and review this advanced ready copy.
