- Synopsis
- Some women are just born to have grand adventures. Such a woman--"the woman" to the bewitched Sherlock Holmes--was the American actress Irene Adler, who shrugged off her untimely literary demise in "A Scandal in Bohemia" to reappear last year as the heroine of Carole Nelson Douglas's captivating history-mystery Good Night, Mr. Holmes. This vibrant creature is back in Good Morning, Irene, holding court in Paris and laughing up her fashionable sleeve at the rumors of her death. Douglas' larger-than-life sleuth finds herself in France, embroiled in a complicated plot that takes her to Paris, Marseilles and Monaco with her new husband, the suave British barrister Godfrey Norton, and her longtime companion, Penelope Huxleigh. It's a strange and fascinating menage a trois that confronts a corpse who washes up on a bank of the Seine .... Douglas loads her story with real Victorian characters. For readers with no interest in Victoriana and no special craving for mysteries, this book is still great fun because Irene and Penelope keep almost anyone chuckling.
