(2.5 stars) So who stole Sherry Thomas's wonderful craftsmanship when she was writing this fourth installment of her Lady Sherlock series? Where's the superb writing? Where's the great character development? Where's the sparkling, interesting dialogue? Where's the clever interaction among the characters? Where, oh, where? I dunno. Not here in this book, for sure.If you like capers or heists, you will like this story. I much prefer my stories to revolve around the characters and their relationships and interactions, rather than on an Ocean's Eleven type plot, with chasing around here and there, putting on disguises, infiltrating a chateau, planning theft of artwork, or breaking into safes.This book could have been written by any competent author imaginative enough to think up a good, ensemble-cast caper/adventure, with most emphasis on the action and very little on the characters. So I guess you can tell that I'm disappointed. I looked in vain to find Thomas's creative genius, excellent writing, and clever characters. This was just an okay read. Nothing wowed me. As a matter of fact, I was looking forward to being done with it all.The basic plot here has Charlotte et al (that would be Mrs. Watson, Olivia Holmes, Lord Ingram, Stephen Marbleton, and a cohort of Lord Ingram) off to a chateau in France in aid of an old friend of Mrs. Watson: the maharani of a minor Indian kingdom who is being blackmailed. The terms of this blackmail require the theft of a large Van Dyck painting which is one of several works of art to be auctioned off during a large house party at this chateau.Naturally Charlotte intuits much more about the case than any reasonable human could and it all makes for a reasonably interesting heist story, but it is not an inspired or inspiring read, just a rather prosaic account of events. If you read THE HOLLOW OF FEAR and then follow it up with this one, you may feel disappointment. Personal relationships had started moving ahead well in that book. In this one, I felt as if we were taking a few steps back.Nothing new here. There's some reference to Charlotte and Ash's romance, also to that of Livia and Stephen. Lady Ingram makes an appearance. There's reference to Moriarty, but really nothing much that's new or advances the series story arc.About the only bits in this that were not part of the caper but rather attempts at human interaction were just some moments when characters in the book "school" Livia and, hence, Thomas "schools" her readers about certain social issues or problems: (1) Who you love does not alter who you are. One's sexual orientation should not matter in a friendship. (2) Don't allow yourself to be bullied. Never let others make you feel less than you are. (3) Do worthwhile things (such as writing Sherlock stories) for yourself, not to impress others. (4) Women have it tougher in life than men, always having to prove themselves. (5) Colonialism, not good.Yeah, yeah. Thanks for the lessons, Ms Thomas. Words to live by, but just tossed into a book incidentally and superficially, they don't mean that much. I would have preferred more of an in-depth look at the characters and their relationships. And talking about Charlotte's chins does not count.
