Mary the Famous Detective

A 21st-century girl named Mary finds herself transmigrated into 19th-century Victorian Britain — and into the famously complicated Bennet family. Her eldest sister is gentle and virtuous, married to a wealthy and handsome gentleman. The second sister, clever and independent, also snagged a rich and dashing husband. The youngest eloped with a pretty-faced but foolish officer, and the fourth still dreams of doing the same. Now Elizabeth (Mrs. Darcy) is left worrying about the plain, bookish third sister — Mary. “Please,” Elizabeth frets, “just don’t let her fall for some scoundrel.” But Mary calmly pats her chest and declares: “Don’t worry, Second Sister. My lover is intelligent, just, charming, the smartest man in Britain… and far too sexy for the average gentleman.” Somewhere in London, Mr. Sherlock Holmes sneezes. “…Did I catch a cold?” A delightful heroine’s growth story — filled with missteps, self-discovery, and a slow-burn romance between a sharp-minded girl from the future and the most brilliant detective in history.
