Summary
It is 1895, and Sherlock Holmes’s new client is a High Court judge, whose free-spirited daughter has disappeared without a trace.

Hannah has joined the Elysians under an assumed name, convinced that her friend has been murdered.

Good story but bizarre narration
I have listened to a number of the James Lovegrove books and they are excellent. The narrator, however is rather odd. The character voices for Holmes and Watson are consistent and excellent. All the others seem to be a variation on an Irish accent.
Then we have very strange pronounciation of well known words that are frankly bizarre. Does he do this on purpose and why were these not picked up by the producer?
The stories are excellent but often spoiled by the narrator

Good fun
A good tale - this Lovegrove writes some of the best Sherlock Holmes stories…
Narration is excellent, which makes the mispronunciation of certain words - environs, penchant etc.. - all the more surprising and comical! But a very good audible…

A new favourite!
I have thoroughly enjoyed all of Lovegrove’s ‘Holmes’ books, but I think this is my new favourite. The narration was excellent and the story was straightforward and gripping throughout. If you’ve enjoyed these before, don’t hesitate on this one.

A good story well told but...
...but in some parts Doctor Watson is a bit too dense for my liking. And had reacted the way he did in some scenes during the time he fought in the war, I seriously doubt he would have survived, let alone saved any of his comrades.

Lovegrove never disappoints
Superb, perfectly written in the appropriate style. I always look forward to Lovegrove's Holmes novels - I've got most of them in my library - but the problem is I tend to finish them too quickly: once I start, I can't stop 😊

Good story
It was one of the best non ACD books. Apart from some odd pronunciation I enjoyed it but the bit I did not like was portraying Watson as very slow to take action. As a military medic he would have acted quicker.
