The Devil’s Due (A Sherlock Holmes Adventure)The Devil’s Due by Bonnie MacBird
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1890. Sherlock Holmes becomes embroiled in the case of the French anarchists but then he is made aware of a series of murders which are then followed by family suicides. Mycroft wants him to concentrate on these killings. But he has his distractors in the persons of the new Chief Commissioner of Scotland Yard - Titus Billings - and Gabriel Zanders, a newsman.
With the help of Dr Watson can Holmes determine the motive and the guilty person.
Although the third in the series it is easily read as a standalone story, and I look forward to reading the first two.
A very enjoyable, well-written, mystery, with its likeable characters, and thankfully great support from Watson.
