Winner of the Nero Wolfe Award
 
It is 1921 and Mary Russell--Sherlock Holmes's brilliant apprentice, now an Oxford graduate with a degree in theology--finds herself on the verge of acquiring a sizeable inheritance. Independent at last, with a passion for divinity and detective work, her most baffling mystery may now involve Holmes himself, and the burgeoning of a deeper affection between herself and the retired detective. Russell's attentions turn to the New Temple of God and its leader, Margery Childe--a charismatic suffragette, and a mystic, whose draw on the young theology scholar is irresistible. But when four bluestockings from the temple turn up dead shortly after changing their wills, could sins of a capital nature be afoot? Holmes and Russell investigate, as their partnership takes a surprisingly amorous turn.
