The Blue Diamond: A Daughter of Sherlock Holmes Mystery

The Blue Diamond 💎 Daughter of Sherlock Holmes #6 This is a most excellently written book, and is the first I've read of the series. I definitely will buy a paperback copy later so my siblings can enjoy it as well. Joanna Watson, now daughter-in-law to the original Dr. Watson, is a marvelous detective, and is commonly consulted by Scotland Yard for difficult and time consuming cases. Her husband and Dr. Watson Sr. greatly enjoy helping her root out answers to some of the most puzzling mysteries and challenges England has to offer. The writing style is quite nice, stated matter of factly and without the pompous air of some Brit books. The London smog and mist comes to life before your eyes, as well as the interesting characters that inhabit her streets.  Simply put, I LOVED this book and can't wait to read more of this series! (Mildly) Negative Content Joanna, and Dr. John Watson Jr. & Sr. drink brandy and a couple other spirits, but just a shot or two. There is a short mention of the ways a criminal could dispose of evidence after a victim had been killed, but it's only briefly mentioned and not overly detailed. Thank you to Netgalley and the author for the e-book. The opinions and thoughts above are my own, and a positive review was not required.
