Mrs Hudson and the Spirits' Curse by Martin Davies Book Summary

What if Baker Street’s most gifted resident wasn’t called Sherlock Holmes?

An evil stalks London, blown in from the tropics. Stories of cursed giant rats and malign spirits haunt the garrets of Limehouse. A group of merchants are, one by one, dying. The elementary choice to investigate these mysterious deaths is, of course, Holmes and Dr Watson.

Yet the unique gifts of their housekeeper, Mrs Hudson, and her orphaned assistant Flotsam, will be needed to solve the case. Can she do it all under the nose of Sherlock himself?

From the coal fire at Baker Street to the smog of Whitechapel and the jungles of Sumatra, from snake bites in grand hotels to midnight carriage chases at the docks, it’s time for Mrs Hudson to step out of the shadows. Playfully breaking with convention, Martin Davies brings a fresh twist to classic Victorian mystery.

Martin Davies grew up in north-west England. All his writing is done in cafes, on buses or on trains, and all his first drafts are written in longhand. He has travelled widely, including in the Middle East, India and Sicily. In addition to the Holmes & Hudson Mysteries, he is the author of four other novels, including The Conjurer’s Bird, which sold over 150,000 copies and was selected for the Richard & Judy Book Club and Havana Sleeping, which was shortlisted for the 2015 CWA Historical Dagger award. He works as a consultant in the broadcasting industry.

Great premise ship-shape execution. Characters are familiar, plot twist good fun!

Holmes & Hudson. Very good book. I look forward to reading more in the series!

A. People ? I Had

Shadow. It was an amazing book

Excellent!. I really enjoyed this twist-filled story! I'd actually love to see the BBC or PBS Masterpiece Mystery pick this up and have a screenplay made for a movie or part of a series of Sherlock Holmes events. I've always thought Mrs. Hudson is an underwritten character who should be brought forward more. This is a great example of how it should be done!

Mrs. Hudson and the Spirit’s Curse. Sherlock Holmes and Doctor James Watson don’t solve cases as easily and neatly as Watson would have us believe in this series of novels. Their maid, Flotsam, recounts her observations of the mental gymnastics of both Holmes and his housekeeper Mrs. Hudson when a mysterious man presents them with a dagger and a letter on their first night in their new lodgings on Baker Street. As Holmes and Watson search for ways to protect Mr. Moran from a curse, Flottie’s past returns to haunt her. I found this perspective rather entertaining. Flottie and Mrs. Hudson’s prove just as formidable as their famous employers.

Wonderful.. The detail in this book is great. I am not a Sherlock homes fan but I loved this. Well written.

Holmes' alter ego. A vigorous recounting of one of Sherlock's exploits, sort of. We all know Mrs. Hudson from the canon. What we didn't know was how much that is attributed to Sherlock was really Mrs. H's doing & thinking. A lot of sly telling that presumes you already know the standard tales. And part of that involves the spirits. Fun to read.

Mrs Hudson and the Spirits’ Curse. A good read. Very well written in the main, but the misuse of ‘me, myself, I ‘ grated on me through the thing. I would read more of these tales but they will have the same problem.

Refreshing angle. Unputdownable! Very refreshing to see a female angle to a very interesting mystery tale. Good and fun prose.
