About this listen

Follow the recorded tales of Dr. Watson herself as she navigates life with the enigmatic Sherlock Holmes. And discover the truth behind their unique bond as they uncover the necessity of each other.

In case you were not aware, behind every great man is a woman with a very convincing fake mustache. Thus, the tales of the great Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson may, in fact, surprise you.

Regrettably, Johanna Watson was born a woman, and to add to her father’s dismay, she was horrendously bad at it. She had a fire in her and a passion for research, science, and learning that her father didn’t understand.

But after striking a deal with her brother, she took his place studying medicine incognito behind their father’s back. Thus, the erudite Doctor John Watson was established in the world. After returning to London, she found rooms at 221B Baker Street with the enigmatic individual Sherlock Holmes. Watson did not anticipate they would have much in common - she was wrong. Sherlock has her own secrets, and a life so full of mystery and intrigue that Watson cannot help but get wrapped up in it.

Cases take their friendship all over London and further afield as the pair form an unexpected companionship. But as Watson’s knack for deduction improves, her feelings toward her roommate change in a way neither of them can predict.These tales, recounting their adventures, are recorded by the Doctor. She hopes you love them as much as she enjoyed them making the memories.

A different Holmes & Watson

Could Holmes and Watson be females in disguises? The rigid and stifling societal roles for Victorian women probably produced many women bristling to have more freedoms to use their brains and talents. I enjoyed this book and its premise. The narration was very good. I received a free audiobook code for my honest review.

A delightful reimagining…

I always enjoy books or films that take a wildly different view of Holmes and Watson. “Without a Clue” and “They Might Be Giants” spring to mind.

Well, this audiobook took a quite different look at the two, and I fell in love with them all over again. This was a delightful read, and I beg the author to write more. I want to see more of Baker Street through her eyes. Please!

The reader did a great job on the whole, and her characterizations were excellent. But she occasionally fumbled some words, which temporarily yanked me out of the flow of her narration. If I could give her 4.5 stars I would.

Regardless, don’t miss this audiobook.

Really nice set of stories :)

A really good set of eight short stories, playing with the idea of both, Holmes and Watson, being women.

I liked the fact that, in these stories, being women actually helped them to solve the cases insted of been an hindrance :P

The stories are witty and funny, the cast of characters very interesting and the cases are smartly done.

A refreshing book :D

Beware of Major Changes

The secrets of Baker Street are that major changes have been to the canon in turning both Holmes and Watson into females masquerading as males. Hard for me to accept, especially when they start developing a romantic relationship. Might have gone over better if they just been two females pretending to be males and solving crimes like the real Holmes & Watson instead of trying to be the actual Holmes & Watson. The cases are ok, but nothing of strong note. Performance was good.
