Really exciting! It was nice that we didn’t need as much set up in this book. Charlotte is so odd but compelling, a great swapped Sherlock. I like how the major murder and Sherlock consultation become intertwined. And how intertwined all the characters are!

Second time reading in advance of her fifth book coming out next month, love this series! The twists! The discussions of women's roles and power in a heavily sexist society! The descriptions of pastry!

I absolutely love this series. I adore Charlotte Holmes as Sherlock Holmes. This book just added to my love of the characters in this series. I also really liked that Olivia has started writing and can’t wait to see how that story line will continue. Its refreshing to see that all the women in this series are extremely interesting, intelligent and talented. It has a great mystery, beloved characters and potential love stories. A perfect mix for me, who could ask for anything more.
