This was another fun read featuring Harry White on her second investigation courtesy of her link to Sherlock Holmes. This time amongst all the post addressed to Sherlock Holmes that she must reply to she receives a telegram which intrigues her and so she decides to find out more. I liked the simplicity of this with the investigation taking place in a secluded manor with only five residents, there was plenty of intrigue and an excellent mystery which was part solved by an unrelated encounter. I enjoyed seeing her in her minor investigations at the bank too and am looking forward to discovering if this links to the ending which was certainly a bit of a teaser. This was great escapism and I do love Harry’s character and intrepidness.

Book 2 in the Baker Street Mysteries and Harry is back on the case.
Harry receives a telegram to Baker Street, unable to ignore it or send the standard reply back she to the home of author Philip St John. He is having hallucinations and the staff believe he is cursed. Harriet starts to investigate, is he cursed or is someone poisoning him.
A great cozy mystery read.
