A Letter of Mary by Laurie R. King
3.0
It was OK. [Caution: spoilers]
What I like: the characters, the general writing style and language; some great turns of phrase. I listened to this on CD and the reader gives a true performance. The accents and voices of the different characters is wonderful. I like the characters' back stories; Holmes, Miss Russell, Dr Watson, etc.
What I didn't like as much: the mystery; main plot line. This is the third in the series and the third I've listened to/read. The mystery just didn't grab me. In the end it seemed like a whole lot of trouble over a simple family feud and the leads that the main character (Mary) were following didn't pan out.
I'll probably read another one, but will give it a break for a while.
