Miss Moriarty, I Presume? (Lady Sherlock #6)
by Sherry Thomas (Author), Kate Reading (Narrator)
To truly enjoy this series, start at the beginning and read the books in order. Each book builds on the next and I'm entrenched in this world, with characters I care about and locations that seem so familiar now. And it's been a delight, watching the relationship between Charlotte Holmes and Lord Ingram move forward. Stodgy, glum Lord Ingram has become a new man as he is shedding the tethers of a miserable marriage and a wife that never loved him. In the few months since they have last seen each other, Charlotte has entertained herself by sending Lord Ingram extremely suggestive and erotic messages and knitted gifts. Who knew that one would need to hide knitted water bottle covers from others!
But it's not all cakes and candy (Charlotte can never put her waistline before enticing dessert) because Moriarty himself has come to her for help. Knowing that Charlotte and those close to her are in his sights and not safe, Charlotte also knows that it's best to play along with Moriarty, when he requests that Charlotte investigate his daughter's welfare in a remote community of occult practitioners. As usual, so much is not as it seems and it's hard to discern how many more enemies might be out to hinder and harm Charlotte and her friends. Never is each book a self contained unit and now I'm looking forward to the next book. Moriarty doesn't rest and will never forget.

Wonderful review Marilyn, I’m glad you are enjoying the series. Although I read occasional historical I don’t think I could do a series!

Fabulous review, Marilyn. I don't think I could fit a series that didn't begin today into my schedule anywhere! 😄 It does sound fun though!

I understand, Kat. I MUST read a series in order. I was offered a widget that was #37 in a series I haven't read. I had vapors so bad that I needed my smelling salts. 😂 (I passed on that book) 😊

Wonderful review, Marylin! I will definitely take your advice and start reading at the beginning of the series!

I'm on book #7 right now and am so glad I have all the background from the other books. Thank you, Nora!

Thanks, Christy, there is so much detail I can almost get lost but I feel like I know the recurring characters so well and that helps.

This sounds fantastic, Marilyn how can you do this to me?? On the TBR list it goes. I'll try to find the audiobook :)
Oh, is this a extension of the "Lady Sherlock" series? I will be clicking on the author name of course but thought right off it sounded familiar and then reading the description… Will add because I love these.

I'm listening to book #7 right now. It really does have me in Sherlock land (Charlotte land). I even get confused with all the sleuthing that goes on in the Sherlock books (those people are just too smart for me) 🤣 and it's the same way with this series. I have to use extra brain cells to keep up!

Thank you, Diane! 💜 This would have been a wonderful series to have gotten to read/hear, one right after another (if one had time to do such a thing). Still, the story does bring the reader up to date on certain things when it is necessary.
