Sherlock's Sisters
Om bogen
Sherlock Holmes was the most famous detective to stride through the pages of late Victorian and Edwardian fiction, but he was not the only one. He had plenty of rivals. Some of the most memorable of these were women: they were 'Sherlock's Sisters'. This exciting, unusual anthology gathers together 15 stories written by women or featuring female detectives. They include
Dorcas Dene,
Lady Molly of Scotland Yard,
Hagar the Gypsy,
Judith Lee and
Madelyn Mack.
Editor Nick Rennison has already compiled several highly entertaining collections of stories from what he considers a golden age of crime fiction, including
The Rivals of Sherlock Holmes,
More Rivals ofSherlock Holmes and
Supernatural Sherlocks. His latest anthology turns the spotlight on the women detectives who could more than match their male counterparts.
