The Beekeeper's Apprentice brings the master of logic and wit, Sherlock Holmes, into the company of an equally curious and capable teen-age girl, Mary Russell. The pair meet on England's Sussex Downs in 1915, where Holmes has retired to become a Beekeeper.

The young American heiress (and Oxford student!) matures and learns the art of detection from Holmes. Adventure and romance bind young and old together in this unusual mystery.  

Copies of the book are available in the Albany Library.
