About this listen
What's behind a series of mysterious deaths among the favourite concubines of Sultan of Turkey, Abdul Hamid II? Suspecting a plot against himself, the Sultan has called on Sherlock Holmes to investigate. However, as a man, the detective is clearly unable to penetrate the exotic enclosed world of the harem, so he reluctantly enlists the help of his landlady, Mrs Hudson. Together with Dr Watson, they travel across Europe by Orient Express to Constantinople, on the way encountering Holmes's old enemy, Baron Mauterpuis.
Once ensconced in the harem, Mrs Hudson has to adjust to the strange new world she finds there, rife with jealousy and superstition. Holmes has assured her that she is in no danger, but, while trying to unravel the tangled web around the deaths of the concubines, Mrs Hudson uncovers some alarming evidence regarding the Baron, that puts her in mortal danger.
The medley of characters in this engrossing novel includes the formidable Abdul Hamid II himself, the sweet young Princess Naime, a glowering eunuch called Bashir, Mrs Hudson's lively little French maid Madeleine, a Russian diva, a homely English governess, a malevolent little boy and a tiger named Guzellik.

Story
The London Borough of Hackney is run by the crime syndicate Bai Ze. One night an expensive horse carriage arrives at their headquarters. Behind the carriage is the leader of the Bai Ze, Mr. Quin, hanging at the end of a bloody rope. The journey here has stripped him of his clothes and shredded most of his skin off him. He rasps one final word to his second in command: 'Mogwai'. It's the Cantonese word for the devil. In London the normal order of the criminal syndicates has been broken and a new dangerous villain is playing to win the entire game.

Story
For all we know, or think we know, about Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson, what we don’t know is far, far greater. In the duo’s first case, A Study in Scarlet, we learn that Holmes and Watson met on January 1st, 1881, and subsequently moved into an apartment together at 221b Baker Street. Their first case officially began on March 4th of that year, and it is argued that “The Adventure of the Resident Patient” possibly took place in October of 1881, depending on which version of the story you read. But what happened during the rest of 1881? Or all of 1882?

More parodies have been written targeting Sherlock Holmes than anyone else dead or alive, fictional or real. James M.

While Sherlock's creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle lived, close to 400 appeared in Britain and America.

Story
Holmes is consulted by Mr Devine on an unusual matter. Mr Devine has apprehended two malefactors in a well-watered garden in the Middle East and is unsure what is an appropriate form of retribution to impose. Holmes, Watson, and Mr Devine discuss the problem at length before arriving at a solution which satisfies all of them. Orlando Pearson himself then pens an essay setting out a radical theory about Sherlock Holmes and this theory is given further substance in an extraordinary fragment of Dr Watson’s writing found in the Public Record Office long after Watson’s death.

Excellent
I was saddened and appalled to find out what was happening to the ladies of the harem. Greed pure and simple. Scams were a means to an end. There's never enough justice for such heinous atrocities. Holmes in for the win. That's one thing I always expect and count on. He does it in such brilliant fashion. I enjoyed this adventure. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did an excellent job bringing the characters and story to life.

Michael Langan did a fantastic job on the narration.the story takes place in a Turkey, the sultan’s concubines are dying mysteriously. The sultan calls upon Sherlock Homes but he a man so he gets Mrs. Hudson to go in and discovers what is happening. Mrs. Hudson may discover more than what they bargained for. Will things be discovered that should remain hidden? Will whatever is happening stop? Listen to find out. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.would recommend

A Thrilling and Engaging Adventure
I particularly enjoy Susan Knight’s books of Holmes and Watson that include Mrs. Hudson. This adventure has the trio heading to Turkey to investigate threats against the Sultan and the deaths of several of his favorites. Mrs. Hudson is installed in the Harem to investigate from within, while Holmes and Watson work other avenues. There are a lot of tangled threads to unravel, including the appearance of a nemesis on the Orient Express on the way to Constantinople. Rich descriptions of the setting and scenes bring the reader/listener right into the action. The narration by Steve Langan adds immensely to the engrossing adventure. His performance of the characters and the creating the atmosphere beings the story to life.

Mostly a Martha Hudson story
Though it starts out as a Holmes mystery with Watson and Martha Hudson along for the ride, ultimately it is a story about Martha Hudson solving the mystery. It even somewhat shows Holmes in a negative light, with him not making any progress on the mystery. At the end of the day, it is still an interesting story and a well-done performance.

A Holmes Story Told by Mrs. Hutson
In this Story Sherlock Holmes employees Mrs. Hutson via urging from Dr. Watson to help in a problem with the Turkish Empirer.
This is interesting because it is told from Mrs. Hutson point of view and experience.
Narrator does a good job with the characters and entire storyline
