Sherlock Holmes - The Devil's Dust
Sherlock Holmes - The Devil's Dust | James Lovegrove
8 posts | 2 read | 8 to read
It is 1884, and when a fellow landlady finds her lodger poisoned, Mrs Hudson turns to Sherlock Holmes. The police suspect the landlady of murder, but Mrs Hudson insists that her friend is innocent. Upon investigating, the companions discover that the lodger, a civil servant recently returned from India, was living in almost complete seclusion, and that his last act was to scrawl a mysterious message on a scrap of paper. The riddles pile up as aged big game hunter Allan Quatermain is spotted at the scene of the crime when Holmes and Watson investigate. The famous man of mind and the legendary man of action will make an unlikely team in a case of corruption, revenge, and what can only be described as magic...

What an adventure we go on with Holmes, Watson and two men from Africa whose relationship is strongly reminiscent of that which we see in Holmes and his companion/roommate. True to Sherlock this is a smart mystery that makes for a fun and at times guns-a-blazing read! Definitely a reccomendation. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

4/5 star adaptation and one that had me hooked from page one. This book is so wonderfully written and a great take on Sherlock Holmes. It‘s exciting and interesting and I found it very true to the original stories. Full review here: https://mysticreadsbookblogblog.wordpress.com/2018/07/27/sherlock-holmes-the-dev...

I‘m still reading Sherlock Holmes: The Devils Dust and it‘s extremely interesting. A lot better than I was expecting it be, I think Doyle would approve this one. I‘m hoping to finish it tonight so I can choose some fresh reads for the weekend. What are you reading right now? #bookaddict #booklover #bookblog #bookish #bookworm #bookstamums

{#currentlyreading — Sherlock Holmes: The Devils Dust} 🖤🌻

I‘ve finished almost all of my current reads so I‘ve decided to delve into the new James Lovegrove Sherlock book. It sounds promising and I love a good mystery story (and Sherlock Holmes!). I‘m still reading Martial alongside too! #bookaddict #booklover #bookblog #bookish #bookworm #bookstamums #bedsidestack
