Publisher Description

After a stunning debut in Good Night, Mr. Holmes, Irene Adler returns to life and action in France.

Diva/detective Irene Adler and her bridegroom, handsome barrister Godfrey Norton, are honeymooning in Paris when they become embroiled in an investigation: a drowned sailor's body has been recovered from the Seine, and on his chest is a tattoo. It is a tattoo like one Irene once saw in London—on another sailor's chest, while the corpse lay upon Bram Stoker's dining room table. This clue will lead Irene to the first beautiful blonde American princess of Monaco, political and matrimonial treachery, and a sword duel as she and her new friend Sarah Bernhardt unravel the mystery—with, of course, the help of Godfrey, Irene's faithful chronicler Miss Penelope Huxleigh, and Sherlock Holmes himself.

    " I really wanted to like this series, but the narrator is just too annoying to read any more right now. "

    " This was another fun female version of a Sherlock Holmes mystery, with disguises and plotting and amusing characters. For some reason, though, I didn't get as involved with the story as I did with the first one of the series. Oh well, it's still a good summer read. "

    " This one is not as fun as the first but still carries some of the texture of one of Doyle's stories fleshed out radically. "
