Smart Bitches Summer Bingo: the latest or last book in a series
CBR16 Bingo: fan fiction
This is book 8 in the series, and really not a good place to begin. Start with A Study in Scarlet Women.
Charlotte Holmes, more used to solving murder mysteries, now finds herself questioned by the police, the main suspect in the murder of Lord Bancroft Ashburton. Inspector Threadles is concerned for her, but needn’t have worried, Ms Holmes isn’t going to let something as tiresome as a charge of murder keep her down.
In the present, the reader follows Charlotte and her questioning by the police. In various flashbacks, we are given insight into what has really happened, and how Charlotte, her beloved Ash, Mrs Watson and the rest of her gang have been working on a number of different schemes, some of which did involve Lord Bancroft.
