Ebook About USA Today bestselling author Sherry Thomas turns the story of the renowned Sherlock Holmes upside down in the first novel in this Victorian mystery series.... With her inquisitive mind, Charlotte Holmes has never felt comfortable with the demureness expected of the fairer sex in upper class society. But even she never thought that she would become a social pariah, an outcast fending for herself on the mean streets of London. When the city is struck by a trio of unexpected deaths and suspicion falls on her sister and her father, Charlotte is desperate to find the true culprits and clear the family name. She’ll have help from friends new and old—a kind-hearted widow, a police inspector, and a man who has long loved her. But in the end, it will be up to Charlotte, under the assumed name Sherlock Holmes, to challenge society’s expectations and match wits against an unseen mastermind.An NPR Best Book of 2016Book A Study In Scarlet Women (The Lady Sherlock Series Book 1) Review :
For the first half of this book I really couldn't see the Sherlock connection at all, apart from the pseudonym. I found it an engaging mystery story in its own right, but I felt it had been misrepresented as 'genderbent Sherlock.'But about halfway through things started to come together, and by the end I was squealing with glee at each reveal. Charlotte manages to be her own character, while still retaining some of the qualities of the classic Sherlock (there are also a few sly nods to the original, and their differences). Other characters also seem both familiar and also refreshingly new. I loved that several other characters also received the gender swap treatment, while others are preserved with some slight tweaks.The mystery was engaging, and while I didn't see the twist coming, it made me grin once I realized. It manages to keep the spirit of the original case without being completely predictable.Overall this was a very enjoyable and very quick read. I'm glad it is a series, because I'm looking forward to spending a lot more time with these characters. I'm a big Sherry Thomas fan and her book Not Quite a Husband is one of my all time favorites. In this most recent book, which is apparently the first book in a new detective series, our heroine is totally unique. Any description I could give of her persona wouldn't do her justice. Charlotte Holmes is a genius with a memory and insight into people and situations that are best described as out of this world. She didn't speak a full sentence until she was four years old but her lack of speech was not indicative of a lack of genius.In truth, this book hit me in a personal way that was quite unexpected. I have two grandchildren - stunningly beautiful teen-age girls who were diagnosed with autism when they were ages 3 and 5. Their delayed speech and the eventual unveiling of amazing gifts in certain areas such as memory and music gave me personal insight into Charlotte, even in one area that was so lacking - that being the set of filtering skills that are so necessary to navigate through the levels of Society and relate in what is often considered a "normal" and acceptable manner to others.Leaving aside the personal, Charlotte was simply unlike any type of heroine I've read about in this genre. During the first few pages, we are thrown into a much different scenario and type of behavior than one would expect from a heroine during the Victorian era. I won't give away the happenings in the first few pages, but the end result is that our unique girl winds up leaving home and setting out to try and make a life for herself rather than be banished to the outback of Society in a small cottage. Charlotte does have some friends, including her sister, Olivia, who is her bosom bud. We soon learn that she has another friend - that would be a gentleman who is introduced to us as Lord Ingram Ashburton, however, since he is married, he surely can't be her love interest, can he?If you're looking for a lovely romantic story, it's simply not going to happen in this first book. For the first 62% of the book, few clues are given about Charlotte's and Ingram's relationship. This may not please some readers. They've known one another for years and years, but there's very little about their relationship in this book. I suspect their relationship will be built upon during the next books in the series with parts of their past slowly revealed. Rather, this story deals primarily with Charlotte's amazing gifts that will pave the way for her to be the perfect person to eventually be set up as "Sherlock Holmes" - Sherlock replacing "Charlotte" because in that day and age, the world wasn't ready to accept a female in the role of a detective.Suffice it to say there is a mystery to be solved - one involving three deaths that at first appear to be unrelated. When it becomes obvious that Olivia might be accused of having something to do with one of the murders, Charlotte decides she must communicate certain questions and insights about the deaths of the three people that would appear to indicate the deaths are related on some level. To do this, she writes a letter to the coroner and outlines her thoughts, signing the note as "Sherlock Holmes" resulting in everyone wondering exactly who Mr. Holmes is.The storyline spends a fair amount of time fleshing out the characters that are certain to be prominent in future stories, including the introduction to the woman who will be Holmes' sidekick, Mrs. Watson. The person to whom the clues are sent is an Investigator Treadwell - again, his character is fully fleshed out with details about his marriage, his background, even his clothing to the point, we feel as though we really do know this gentleman and his wife - obviously a saint of a woman who married down, but loves her husband.The underlying story behind the murders is an ugly one that I won't go into in this review. I actually felt as though the main investigation headed up by Treadwell with Holmes providing continuing helpful insight, was a little slow moving for much of the book. Nevertheless, there was a lot of groundwork to build upon if the series is to be successful and indeed, we have a great start in this first book.If you're not a fan of "whodunit" types of stories, this book may not work for you. In fact, although I'm a huge fan of the Sebastian St. Cyr / Captain Lacey / Lady Julia Grey books, this series will add an element none of those series have - that being a female protagonist who has nearly superhuman abilities relative to memory, recall and level of genius.**Spoilerish** I had a couple of difficulties with the storyline for which I will not take away any stars. The premise that the love interest for Charlotte is a married man that she has obviously encouraged in the past and in the present in unacceptable ways, troubled me because I personally believe this type of behavior is dishonest and dishonorable. One other thing that is shocking within the first few pages, is the behavior that Charlotte engaged in that resulted in her having to leave home. Once certain aspects of her character are revealed, her behavior is understood - not condoned by me, but I understood her persona better which allowed me to give her more grace. I know, I know I sound like a prude, but there it is. I dislike my heroine to be involved with a married man, although to Ingram's credit, he refuses to be involved with her in that way at least in this book with one exception. As for Charlotte, well she doesn't look at life through the acceptable filters of Society which in many ways is vastly appealing, but not in matters of honor.I loved the book. I look forward to more.
