With her inquisitive mind, Charlotte Holmes has never felt comfortable with the demureness expected of the fairer sex in upper class society. But even she never thought that she would become a social pariah, an outcast fending for herself on the mean streets of London.

When the city is struck by a trio of unexpected deaths and suspicion falls on her sister and her father, Charlotte is desperate to find the true culprits and clear the family name. She’ll have help from friends new and old—a kind-hearted widow, a police inspector, and a man who has long loved her. But in the end, it will be up to Charlotte, under the assumed name Sherlock Holmes, to challenge society’s expectations and match wits against an unseen mastermind.

4 (Muito bom)

Vou seguir a série

Essa versão feminina de Holmes tem tudo que gosto: romance, mistério, casos de família, amizades... tudo isso numa época em que mulheres não tinham independência nem voz.
Os personagens são interessantes e Charlotte é uma Holmes na medida certa.
O capítulo 8 é chato mas depois se desenvolve muito bem!
