The Pirate King. Disappointing. It is not really a mystery. The story begins with the possibility of a mystery to be investigated by Mary, Holmes does not figure into the plot until well into the book. It is somewhat boring and the end is very contrived. Mary must join a movie crew to find out if something shady is going on, ends up in charge of the crew, and the story drifts into the difficulties of dealing with all the egocentric actresses, actors, directors, cameramen, etc. The crew is kidnapped by pirates, Mary and Holmes save the crew and the fledgling British film industry. By the end, you just want it to be over. Every other Laurie King book is much better.

Save your money. If it were possible I would have given this book zero stars. It was boring and not even close to being as good as the past books. A complete waste of money!

Big fan, but Pirate sooooo disappointing. Having pre-ordered, I eagerly awaited this book, having read with enjoyment all The Mary Russell series. Not only was this not of King's caliber, even a lesser know author would be judged poorly. It is not a mystery, unless you take the vaguest interpretation- meaning there is something someone doesn't know. It is rambling, lacks plot and repeats it's own nonsense to letters to Holmes. He don't appear until half way though the book. When he arrived, I honestly thought- Good maybe it will start making sense. Then I remembered, this mess is the author's fault not his! I finished it, only because I spent so much money.
