Moriarty Takes His Medicine

Written by Anna Castle

Narrated by Jill Smith

Professor & Mrs. Moriarty tackle a case too ticklish for Sherlock Holmes to handle on his own.

James and Angelina Moriarty are settling into their new marriage and their fashionable new home — or trying to.Then Sherlock Holmes comes to call with a challenging case. He suspects a prominent Harley Street specialist of committing murders for hire, sending patients home from his private hospital with deadly doses or fatal conditions. Holmes wants to investigate, but the doctor’s clientele is exclusively female. He needs Angelina’s help.

While Moriarty, Holmes, and Watson explore the many ways a doctor can murder patients with impunity, Angelina poses as a nervous woman seeking treatment from their primary suspect. Then half-truths and angry words drive James and Angelina apart, sending her deep into danger. They must find the courage to trust each other as they race the clock to win justice for the murdered women before they become victims themselves.

Reviews for Moriarty Takes His Medicine

[vesper1931 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

In 1885 Sherlock Holmes asks for the help of the Moriarty couple, or more precisely Mrs Moriarty. As he suspects one or several doctors at a private nursing home of murder. A home for rich ladies and impatient heirs.
Enjoyed the story, it was well-written and I liked the characters, and the interplay between Holmes and Professor Moriarty.
