Baker Street Jurors
Baker Street Jurors | Michael Robertson
8 posts | 4 read | 6 to read
Michael Robertson has delighted mystery readers and Sherlock Holmes aficionados everywhere with his charming and innovative Baker Street mystery series, where brothers Reggie and Nigel Heath are charged with answering letters to Sherlock that arrive at their law office, located at 221B Baker Street."""Everyone must do jury duty. Even Sherlock Holmes."A nation s greatest sports hero has been accused of murder. The trial is approaching, and the public is clamoring both for and against. And in a desperate, computer-generated quest to fill its quota of jurors, the Crown Court has included on its summons list the known occupants real and otherwise of 221B Baker Street. One summons is addressed to Sherlock Holmes; it doesn t matter to the Crown Court Jury Selection Service whether Holmes is real or fictional, or in which century he existed.The other is addressed to Mr. Nigel Heath who is living and sleeping on the couch in his office at Baker Street Chambers. With Nigel in the jury selection pool are a lovely young woman with a mysterious tattoo, an elderly widow with piercing blue eyes and a mind like a tack, a slick millennial whose occupation is cornering the market on prescription drugs, and a tall man with an aquiline nose who seems reluctant to say exactly how he received his jury summons.Before the trial is done, Nigel and each of his fellow prospective jurors will wonder not only which of them will be impaneled and what verdict they will reach but also who will survive to render it."

11-26-23: My 97th finished book of 2023! This was just eh for me. Book 5 in the series. This one centers on brother Heath, just back to England from LA. He gets called for jury duty as does the fictional Sherlock Holmes. The majority of the story takes place in the courtroom with the jurors. Many mishaps occur here to bring them to an island to search for proof of an alibi. It could have been better. ⭐️⭐️⭐️📖#️⃣9️⃣7️⃣

StaceyKondla @TheLibrarian - I'm so glad! I fell in love with the cover at Indigo, but just couldn't risk a new author for almost $40 for a hardcover. The Book Outlet sale made the gamble more affordable 😊 6y
AmandaL Nice haul! 6y

I found this one a bit different from the others in the series. Very Agatha Christie. There were a couple of points where I rolled my eyes a bit, and the female characters are less than satisfactory. But it is full of dark humor, and it is a fun page turner. So...yeah.

Sarah83 I really need this edition 😉 7y

Loved this #quote from the Baker Street Jurors, a series with an updated spin on #Sherlock #Holmes.

kspenmoll Read Baker Street Letters when it was first published & loved it, so I must follow up with the next two books. Thx for the reminder! 7y
SaraRosett @kspenmoll Yes, I'd forgotten about the series too. So long between books! Really enjoying this one. 7y

Two brothers have their legal office at 221B Baker St. Per their lease, they have to handle letters addressed to Sherlock Holmes. They solved mysteries, for the most part. In this book (5th in the series), one brother gets jury duty and stuff starts going down. ****A SPOILER (kinda): the weird thing is that it's not him that solves the crime...it's another juror who is acting, deducting, and speaking like Sherlock.
