reading and listening

Last of the Mohicans for book group -- mostly read on my phone, was better than I anticipated after pulling an all-nighter to finished The Deerslayer in a single night in high school.
350 pages

The Language of Bees by Laurie R. King I listened to it, 16 hours

Don’t let the fact that the last three words of this book are “To Be Continued” prevent you from reading and enjoying it. In the latest installment in this series, instead of “to be continued” being implied, it is an outright promise at the end of the story. And if you are a fan of mystery author Laurie R. King, this is an excellent ending indeed…

The Language of Bees by Laurie R. King continues the story of Sherlock Holmes and his young wife Mary Russell. In this new addition to the popular historical mystery series, the grown son of Sherlock Holmes, a Bohemian artist named Damian Adler, is introduced. appears before Holmes at his home in Sussex to humbly beg for his estranged father’s assistance in locating his missing wife and daughter. Holmes leaves abruptly with his son and Mary is left at home to piece together where they have gone and how she can help. When Yolanda Adler’s body turns up just after Damian Adler goes missing, Sherlock Holmes and Mary Russel must solve the crime without letting their involvement be known to Scotland Yard and while fervently hoping that Damian is not as involved in the murder as it seems. While the mystery comes to a conclusion, the excitement of introducing new characters into the lives of Holmes and Russell will clearly continue into future books in this series.

I listened to the audiobook narrated by Jenny Sterlin, whose familiar and talented voice is always a treat for my ears.
