Sherlock Holmes and the County Courthouse Caper

Rating:
Summary: mysteries are found wherever you choose to look
Review: A great introduction to Sherlock and Minnesota.

Before reading this book I'd never picked up a Sherlock Holmes's story. But the combination of fictional investigator and Minnesota history was too good to pass up.

Though I live in Minnesota I haven't really ever been trough the area in which the story takes place. As I read I found myself interested as never before in the history of the area and was pulled in by nostalgia created for a place I had never really been.

As an adult, the story moves briskly and provides a good afternoon or so of entertainment. For a child, the story will take a little longer to digest, but the fast-paced plot and cliffhanger chapters are likely to move even the slowest reader along at a brisk pace.

This is a delightful story all around. For those of you from Minnesota, this is a must read. For those who live elsewhere, you should pick it up; I would be surprised if, by the end of the tale you didn't start wondering what mysteries may have taken place in your own back yard.

Delightful.

Review: I lived in the area of Browns Valley for 7 years (in fact, Clinton, the town where I lived, was mentioned), and had the opportunity to tour the Sam Brown House. However, I did not know a lot of the history as laid out in the book. It is a good mixture of fact and just enough fiction to keep the history from being boring! I know Jeff and his family, in fact, they were the ones who introduced me to Browns Valley and it was fun to read something written by someone I know about a place I am so familiar with.
