HOLMES MARPLE AND POE

HOLMES MARPLE & POE by James Patterson and Brian Sitts

If you have followed this page for any length of time then you know that I am a huge fan of mystery. You also know that Sherlock Holmes and Miss Marple are some of my favorite protagonists. With that being said, there was no way I could pass up a book with this title.

Holmes, Marple, and Poe are a mysterious trio that have recently opened their own PI agency. No one really knows much about them. Their personalities definitely bear a bit of resemblance to their namesakes in their habits and methods, but are they truly related to the well-known figures from the past?

Positioning themselves ingeniously in the midst of crimes that local law enforcement are struggling to solve, Holmes, Marple, and Poe bring their extraordinary skills into the midst of murder, abduction, and art theft. With multiple, intense cases swirling around them, the average person would be lost, but as each steps up to take point in one of the cases, little by little the facts fall into place and what is left are answers.

There is a lot to be aware of in this book.
