Meet Harriet White, Sherlock Holmes' feisty – and entirely fake – assistant, in this gloriously fun mystery, perfect for fans of Anita Prose, Verity Bright and Janice Hallett.
London, 1932. A young maid steps onto a train… and disappears. Her family writes to the only person they can think of to help: Sherlock Holmes. A shame then, that Mr Holmes isn’t real. But then, from a basement beneath 221b Baker Street, someone replies…
Harriet White knows responding to the maid’s family could land her in hot water, but she’s no stranger to trouble. It was refusing to cow to her over-familiar boss that saw her demoted to the postal department of their Baker Street head office in the first place. Her new job is to work through the mountain of correspondence addressed to the street’s most famous resident. But when this letter catches her eye, she knows she must do something to help the missing girl.
Harriet decides to act as Holmes’ new assistant, armed with only her love of Conan Doyle’s stories to guide her. But can she solve the case of the missing maid? Or does she risk losing her job – or much, much more – in the process?

Harry (Harriet) is a baron's daughter who isn't into being pigeonholed as a rich man's wife, but when she rebuffs her boss's advances she is demoted from assistant to the mailroom in the basement. There she finds that the company's address encompasses the property known as 221B Baker St and that there are bags of mail addressed to Sherlock Holmes that need to be dealt with even though he is fiction and dead. She starts out relatively well behaved and sends replies that he is unable to help and she is his assistant. But one letter catches her interest. That leads to meeting with the family, fledgling attempts at disguised following and other undercover acts and more until she is discovered by someone who can help--a childhood family acquaintance who is a barrister.
What could possibly go wrong?
Sophie Roberts is the talented voice actor who interprets the story perfectly!
I bought this audio because I read the next in series and wanted to know how it all began.
