“MacBird’s artistry will keep readers eagerly turning the
pages.”
—Michael Dirda, Washington Post “Intriguing … MacBird artfully
alternates among multiple plotlines, maximizing suspense. With its
deep probe into the friendship between the detective and the
doctor, this is a good choice for fans of Sherlock Holmes.”
—Publishers Weekly “Perfectly captures the essence of Conan Doyle's
fiction.'
—Independent “Bonnie MacBird’s The Three Locks satisfies a hunger
for more adventures of Holmes and Watson on so many levels. Not
only does she perfectly capture their voices, she captures that
most critical element—their humanity. Brava!”
—Leslie S. Klinger, editor, New Annotated Sherlock Holmes “Bonnie
MacBird’s sly plot and admirable sense of pacing keeps the story
twisting and turning in a way that would have kept Doyle himself
turning the pages.”
—Michael Sims, author of Arthur and Sherlock: Conan Doyle and the
Creation of Holmes “Though stage magic features in The Three Locks,
the real magician is author Bonnie MacBird, who once again brings
humour, action, rigorous period detail, and the characters we love
to her latest Holmes adventure.”
—Dennis Palumbo, author of Writing from the Inside Out “Bonnie
MacBird has conjured up a captivating three-card monte of murder,
mystery and magic. The Three Locks may be her best yet.”
—Dan Stashower, author of Teller of Tales: The Life of Arthur Conan
Doyle “Skilfully intertwining three very different mysteries,
Bonnie MacBird’s fourth Sherlock Holmes novel is as intriguing as
it is clever.”
—Love London, Love Culture “MacBird's series grows stronger with
each book and she remains the best and most faithful pastiche
writer out there today – bar none.”
—The Doylockian “This splendid romp of a novel is packed with
twists and turns, effortlessly capturing the chaotic energy of
Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes.”—Cambridge Edition
