King (The first installment is "The Beekeeper's Apprentice.")

King achieves a faithful portrayal of an older Holmes, and his wife Mary is a fearless and admirable heroine. In fact, Russell is one of the important inspirations behind Temper of the Borne, the main female character in my Biblical fiction series, "The Cursed Ground."

I strongly recommend Laurie R. King's "Mary Russell" novels for mystery and adventure fans who like strong female characters.
