Sherry Thomas's Lady Sherlock series reimagines Sherlock Holmes through Charlotte Holmes, a brilliant Victorian woman who creates the male identity 'Sherlock Holmes' as a way to work around social restrictions. A Study in Scarlet Women introduces Charlotte, Mrs Watson and Inspector Treadles; A Conspiracy in Belgravia, The Hollow of Fear and later novels develop a long conflict involving Moriarty as well as separate investigations. A Ruse of Shadows is the eighth book. Publication order is strongly recommended because relationships, disguises and continuing political plots build across the sequence. Thomas combines historical mystery, deduction and romance with a protagonist whose greatest obstacle is often the structure of Victorian society itself. Read more Less
