The Hollow of Fear

As seen on The Today Show! One of the best summer mystery picks! Charlotte Holmes, Lady Sherlock, returns in the Victorian-set mystery series from the USA Today bestselling author of A Conspiracy in Belgravia and A Study in Scarlet Women, an NPR Best Book of 2016. Under the cover of "Sherlock Holmes, consulting detective," Charlotte Holmes puts her extraordinary powers of deduction to good use. Aided by the capable Mrs. Watson, Charlotte draws those in need to her and makes it her business to know what other people don't. Moriarty's shadow looms large. First, Charlotte's half brother disappears. Then, Lady Ingram, the estranged wife of Charlotte's close friend Lord Ingram, turns up dead on his estate. And all signs point to Lord Ingram as the murderer. With Scotland Yard closing in, Charlotte goes under disguise to seek out the truth. But uncovering the truth could mean getting too close to Lord Ingram--and a number of malevolent forces...

had a great time. had (pretty much) the fuck or die trope. amazing.

This book was much better than the previous in the series. Still a fair amount of horrible mentions of Charlotte Holmes’ appetite, obsession with food and her multiple chins. 

Once the main event happened to set the game afoot, Charlotte lost her appetite for the rest of the book!!! It was much needed and the storyline flew from there.

Oof. I knew this was going to be good from the summary. lord Ingram being framed for his wife's murder? You know it's all going down and Charlotte would be swooping in to save the day but damn those twists! I did not expect any of it.

Lady Sherlock #3

I think this has to be my favorite of the Lady Sherlock books so far. Lord Ingram is suspected for his own wives murder and Charlotte has to go under disguise to try and prove his innocence. I love that in this book we find ourselves frequenting Lord Ingrams country estate and while there Charlotte and Ash’s chemistry sparks up again even in the face of murder.

Wow! These keep getting better! And I think I found my new favorite OTP! I love the dynamics between Charlotte and Ash. It's true that the sex scenes are more fade-to-black which I was a little disappointed about at first, but Sherry Thomas masterfully follows up with intimate insights on how the H and h feel about each other that it totally makes up for it. The mystery always kept me guessing and I was completely blindsided by the reveal! It's a fresh change compared to other mystery/suspense novels where you see the twist coming a mile away. I highly recommend reading this series in order. I also love how the books pick up exactly where the previous book left off.
