Mystery Woman Sleuth
It’s the second day of the new year, 1924, and Mary Russell
is settling in for a much-needed rest with her husband,
Sherlock Holmes. But the fragile peace will be fleeting—for
a visit with Holmes’s gravely ill brother, Mycroft, brings
news of an intrigue that is sure to halt their respite.
Mycroft, who has ties to the highest levels of the
government, has just received a strange package. The
oilskin-wrapped packet contains the papers of a missing
English spy named Kimball O’Hara—indeed, the same Kimball
who served as the inspiration for Rudyard Kipling’s famed
Kim.
An orphaned English boy turned loose in India, Kim long
used
his cunning to spy for the Crown. But after inexplicably
withdrawing from the “Great Game” of border espionage, he’s
gone missing and is feared taken hostage—or even killed. When Russell learns of Holmes’s own secret friendship with
Kim some thirty years before, she knows the die is cast:
she
will accompany her husband to India to search for the
missing operative. But even before they arrive, danger will
show its face in everything from a suspicious passenger on
board their steamer to an “accident” that very nearly
claims
their lives. Once in India, Russell and Holmes must travel
incognito—no small task for the English lady and her lanky
companion. But after a twist of fate forces the couple to
part ways, Russell learns that in this faraway place it’s
often impossible to tell friend from foe—and that some
games
must be played out until their deadly end.
