1914. Joanna Blalock's keen mind and incredible insight lead her to become a highly-skilled nurse, one of the few professions that allow her to use her finely-tuned brain. But when she and her ten-year-old son witness a man fall to his death, apparently by suicide, they are visited by the elderly Dr. John Watson and his charming, handsome son
This version of The Hound of the Baskervilles was a box-office hit, and Rathbone and Bruce would continue to reprise the iconic roles through more than a dozen follow-up films, which -- after the outbreak of WWII -- made an unexplained time-warp jump that put Holmes in the 20th century fighting German spies! Most critics rank this the best.
Of course, if you couldn't care less about romance, and you're 100% in it for the mystery, then READ THIS! It's such a great historical fiction + mystery novel! Gender-swapped Sherlock Holmes for the win. Rating: 4 stars. My complaints seem relatively tiny compared to how much I liked the book overall.
