The Beekeeper's Apprentice by Laurie R. King
Reader Reviews The beginning of a great series!, September 9, 2003 Reviewer: meiringen from the Midwest In his retirement, Sherlock Holmes becomes acquainted with Mary Russell, a very unconventional 15-year-old whose mind is a match for his. He begins to train her in the art of deductive reasoning, and they have many adventures together. It is the start of a partnership that grows and matures as the series progresses (this is the first book in the series). Ms. King has done a wonderful job of giving us a very believable Holmes in his later years, and Mary Russell is a perfect match for him. A well-written book, and great start to a continuing series that I hope will flourish for some time!
