L&O loves our local authors, and Sherry Thomas always delivers! Her newest book A TEMPEST AT SEA is the newest installation in her feminist historical mystery series: Lady Sherlock, in which Charlotte Holmes investigates crimes in Victorian-era London with the help of a female benefactor and a handsome gentleman.ABOUT A TEMPEST AT SEA Charlotte Holmes’s brilliant mind and deductive skills are pulled into a dangerous investigation at sea in the new mystery in the bestselling Lady Sherlock series. After feigning her own death in Cornwall to escape from Moriarty’s perilous attention, Charlotte Holmes goes into hiding. But then she receives a tempting offer: Find a dossier the crown is desperately seeking, and she might be able to go back to a normal life. Her search leads her aboard the RMS Provence. But on the night Charlotte makes her move to retrieve the dossier, in the midst of a terrifying storm in the Bay of Biscay, a brutal murder takes place on the ship. Instead of solving the crime, as she is accustomed to doing, Charlotte must take care not to be embroiled in this investigation, lest it become known to those who harbor ill intentions that Sherlock Holmes is abroad and still very much alive. Praise for the Lady Sherlock Series: "I AM RIVETED. The Lady Sherlock series is so smart and clever and witty." --Julia Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of the Bridgerton series NOTE: THE BOOK IS NOT RETURNABLE AFTER THE EVENT. YOUR COPY OF THE BOOK IS YOUR TICKET AND CAN ONLY BE REFUNDED BEFORE THE EVENT. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Sherry Thomas burst onto the romance scene with Private Arrangements, one of the most anticipated debut historical romances in recent history and a Publishers Weekly Best of the Year book. Lisa Kleypas calls her “the most powerfully original historical romance author working today.” Her books have received stellar reviews from Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, Chicago Tribune, and Romantic Times, along with enthusiastic praises from many of the most highly trafficked romance review websites and blogs. Her story is all the more interesting given that English is Sherry’s second language—she has come a long way from the days when she made her laborious way through Rosemary Roger’s Sweet Savage Love with an English-Chinese dictionary. She enjoys creating stories. And when she is not writing, she thinks about the zen and zaniness of her profession, plays computer games with her sons, and reads as many fabulous books as she can find.
