Sub-titled 'Stories from the Golden Age of the Female Detective', we learn that Sherlock Holmes had plenty of rivals in the pages of late Victorian and Edwardian fiction. Some of the most memorable of these were women, and this exciting and unusual anthology gathers together 15 stories featuring female detectives all written by women. They include Dora Bell, Sarah Fairbanks, Mrs Florence Cusack, Loveday Brooke, Hagar the Gypsy, Molly Delamere, Violet Strange, Dorcas Dene and Lady Molly of Scotland Yard by Baroness Orczy among them. Often neglected tales, now restored into 320 page paperback.
