      So far a very well written story. The characters feel real, the grammar is excellent, and the plot is engaging. Looking forward to where it goes from here.

      I just finished it and I absolutely adore this story. This story is in my top 2 stories on scribble hub, just through it out there. Great characters development, the main trio have depth and realistic enough. I read Sherlock Holmes when I was 12. But I believe this story to be quite different in both characters and tone, I said it because I see some comparisons in the comments. Nonetheless, love this story, and I shall save the spin-off about Samantha for later dates (it just finished the other day). On that note, congratulations on both stories. :))

      What if Holmes was a woman and Watson was a trans girl.... nah.  Although the comparison is inevitable, it really downplays the strengths and uniqueness on display in this story.

      First of all, Cordelia and Annette are no mere copies of anything.  Cordelia is very stubborn and deductive, but also a prize fighter who is dealing with her past.   Annette is certainly not the bumbling Watson of later adaptation, but neither is she anything like the original character.  Her status as a type of indentured servant mixed with her ability to see things that Cordelia missed make her far more interesting.  The plot starts out seeming like it will be episodic, with the mystery of the week in each story, but then it takes a sharp turn.  The relationship is strained and no one will be left unchanged by the results.    Finally, there is a strong queer element and a revolutionary plot that no Victorian would dare imagine.   It is a plot which takes some risks and I think they pay off.

      I found myself really liking these two and will eagerly read book 2 when it arrives.

      This story is everything you ever imagined a Holmes-sequel could be. We all have read a female lead Holmes-esque and been disappointed at how... well normative it all was. I mean Christ even the original Doyle books aren’t without their... assumptions. Not so with this story. It is thoughtful and loving and meaningful and takes everything you know about Victorian mystery-romance and turns it on its head. It’s deeply representative and aware of the oppression within, and yet despite that weight it is wholeheartedly fun and hopeful and queer in the most comforting sense of the term. A tale about outcasts for outcasts, and one I would recommend to readers queer and not, alike. You’ve nothing to lose but perhaps a few moments of your time in trying it. I promise it is worth the read. <3
