The eleventh book in the Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes series, Pirate King by Laurie R. King is fantastic. It starts out slowly but makes up for it later on. King is a marvelous writer and she has brought her characters brilliantly to life once again. For those interested, the first in the series is The Beekeeper’s Apprentice.
Nutshell: A British film company is under suspicion when their movies seem to come to life. Now, with a film about pirates underway, Mary is asked to go undercover and see who, if anyone, is copycatting the story.
