Another take on Holmes. His sister is the detective. Very enjoyable IMO and good mysteries that are Holmsian in nature,

Thanks - I actually have the first Enola Holmes book somewhere among the 1000+ to-be-read ebooks I've accumulated since going a bit crazy shopping. I keep hearing good things about that one, too, and definitely plan to give it a go one day.

The Mary Russell series does have one major thing in its favour to me (in addition to being plain good stories), and that's the Russell/Holmes relationship. I'm not a romance fan in general, but older man / younger woman relationships are the exception to that.
