The 4th in the Sherlock Holmes Bookshop Mystery Series
Gemma is back! As she and Violet take a late night stroll after a busy day, Violet alerts Gemma to smoke coming from The West London Museum.
Thankfully the entire building is not a loss, but the Baker Street Vendors decide to quickly pull together an auction hoping to raise enough funds for repairs.
Gemma’s Uncle Arthur may be traveling the world, but he generously donates a signed first edition book worth a lot of money.
But before the auction even begins the Chairman of the museum board is found strangled in the storage room. And the people attending are a real mixed bag of characters who have their own little and not so little secrets.
Gemma says she isn’t getting involved in this one, but we know better. That’s why we love her.
Delaney is such a great storyteller and her characters are wonderfully done. Gemma is a strong, independent woman as are all of the female characters. There are no simpering females waiting for rescue here.
A very good series and I look forward to many more!
