The Memoirs of Irene Adler - San Cassimally - Bog

- The Irene Adler Trilogy

Bag om The Memoirs of Irene Adler

In the hopes of showing that the character Irene Adler has much more to give than a walk-on role in one Sir Arthur Conan Doyle story, author San Cassimally disguises her as male private investigator Mr. Dai Lernière, and weaves seven exciting cases into one compelling fictional memoir. Upon their return from a stint in Australia, Holmes suggests to Adler that she take on some investigations of her own, and she does just that. Each story provides an engaging, mind-bending mystery in which Adler and her Club des As uncover clues and give power to the powerless in battles against evil, greedy, and conniving foes. Whether the case involves an Irish patriot accused of treason and facing the gallows, the search for a kidnapped toddler, or a royal bank's involvement in underground slave trade, Adler uses her gifts of deduction and wit to solve the mystery and bring wrongdoers to justice. These collected memoirs of Irene Adler deliver the intellectual challenge and sardonic humor that follows in the Sherlock Holmes tradition-and adds to it a flare only achieved through a woman's touch. Return to 221b Baker Street and experience the Holmesian world expanding with the turn of every page.
