The Last Telegram of Mrs Hudson - Mattea Orr

The first in a new mystery series that reimagines Sherlock Holmes’s mother and her lady’s-maid-turned-investigative-partner.‘Some problems simply merit solving, Mrs Hudson’Heartbroken, widowed, and penniless, Katherine Hudson never intended to become a lady’s maid; especially not to the eccentric Violet Holmes, mother of a precocious seven-year-old named Sherlock. But to keep her family out the poorhouse, Hudson is forced into a life of service. But she quickly discovers that working for Lady Holmes demands far more than polished manners. Instead, she engages in a most scandalous and unladylike activity: solving crimes. When a village boy goes missing, a forged signature links Hudson to the case. And, when a body is discovered on the Holmes estate, suspicion swiftly turns her way. To clear her name, protect her family, and uncover a dangerous secret from her past, Hudson must investigate — while resisting her growing feelings for Lady Holmes.Readers LOVE Lady Holmes and Mrs Hudson'The story surprised me in the best way.
