Publisher's summary

A soldier tired of war...

Born into wealth and privilege, Jenny Watson left her parents’ way of life behind when she volunteered to go fight the shifters. After giving up her commission, she arrives in Linden hoping to make a fresh start and put her medical degree to good use. But when her friend and fellow passenger is murdered, Jenny finds new purpose working with Detective Sharlotte Holmes.

A detective itching for trouble...

Sharlotte Holmes has lived in a three-mile radius her entire life, content to pursue her varied interests and wholly unconcerned with the burden the outside world would place on her great intellect. But when Jenny's past comes back to haunt her, Sharlotte may have to choose between staying in her comfort zone and getting answers.

Experience Sherlock Holmes like never before!

Even More Incredible in Audio

I loved this book when reading it, and I loved it even more listening to it in audio. It's beautifully written, woth humor, delicious descriptions, layers of meaning, and so much purpose. But the narrator brought a whole new level of meaning to it. the voices were so unique and varied and made me feel like I was interacting with real people. The action was well narrated and the cozy humor and wit was even more perfect. I recommend this to absolutely everyone.

unique futuristic gender swapped retelling.

I am a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes so when I saw there was a science fiction retelling of the classic detective I knew I had to read it. The fact that the main characters were also women was just icing on the cake.

Charlotte Holmes feels like somone you'd know. The friendship between Jenny and Charlotte is believable and feels familiar like a friendship you wish you could have. It's one of those true friendships that goes beyond the standard "lets hangout."

At first I wasn't sure what to make of the male narrator for female main characters, but as the story progressed his full voice talent came into play, and I believe the best man was chosen for the job.

If you love the Sherlock Holmes stories and are open to new takes on the characters, or if you're just looking for a good sci-fi mystery, then this book should be next on your TBR list.
