About this listen

Performed by acclaimed audiobook narrators Simon Prebble and Wendy Tremont King.

Lucy James and Sherlock Holmes must solve a mysterious locked-room murder at London's exclusive Diogenes Club. But Lucy is still coping with the traumatic after-effects of their last case, and her romantic relationship with a handsome young police detective is growing more complex.

Emotions intensify and the dangers become life-threatening as they find themselves drawn into lethal conflict with the most ruthless gang leader in London.

It's good to have new, different angles on the Sherlock Holmes original stories, and this is one of those.

great

I have listened to a few of the audio books in this series now.In my opinion this is the best to date, I enjoyed the story-line and thought that it contained just the right balance between excitement and personal relationships.
The narration is far better in this book than in the previous episode, The Jubilee Problem, mainly because the way that it is shared between the two narrators works very well. I also though that Wendy Tremont King's accents were a lot less grating than in the previous story.

Excellent Sherlock and Lucy James story

It really is not a good story, far too much Lucy and not enough Holmes. The “love angle” is not necessary and goes into too much detail at the expense of the actual story. The previous two stories were so much better, in the vein of Conan Doyle and believable. This one, hugely disappointing. Sorry.

Hugely disappointing

Whoever decided Wendy Tremont King was capable of English accents evidently made a severe error of judgement - the narration is so awful it distracts from the plot. I was too irritated to finish the book, but longed for a villain to kill Lucy James so the audience is spared further agony. The most annoying voice I have ever suffered - and as the books are set in UK grossly inappropriate casting. Don't waste time on the series
