About this listen

What if Baker Street’s most gifted resident wasn’t called Sherlock Holmes?

An evil stalks London, blown in from the tropics. Stories of cursed giant rats and malign spirits haunt the garrets of Limehouse. A group of merchants are, one by one, dying. The elementary choice to investigate these mysterious deaths is, of course, Holmes and Dr Watson.

Yet the unique gifts of their housekeeper, Mrs Hudson, and her orphaned assistant Flotsam, will be needed to solve the case. But can she do it all under the nose of Sherlock himself?

Playfully breaking with convention, the Mrs Hudson books bring a fresh twist to classic Victorian mystery.

I wish they had the rest of the series

I thoroughly enjoyed this rendition of the Holmes world. There are several more books that don't seem to be yet turned into audible downloads. I hope they get the rest of the series on audible

Exceptional story of a cunning Mrs. Hudson

This is a highly entertaining mystery for those of us who loved Laurie R. King's Sherlock Holmes series that places the focus on Mary Russell, his mentee, then detective partner, and finally partner in all things. Davies does a splendid job of focusing on a ragamuffin girl who escapes further mistreatment by landing a job as a helper of Mrs Hudson. Little did we know that the celebrated Holmes was not nearly as swift as Dr Watson makes him out to be. Rather, Mrs. Hudson and her helpmeet are "backstage" keeping others safer, solving clues, and placing answers cunningly within reach of supposed Sherlockian genius. This is a keeper! Would love to see more of this series recorded and shared on audible!
