(Disciple of Sherlock Holmes) letter of Maria (Shueisha Bunko) (2000) ISBN: 4087603814

The book immerses readers in its historical period so vividly. I wonder what research process or sources influenced her depiction of the era.

The narration adds layers of complexity, making me wonder if the protagonist's perspective is entirely reliable or deliberately misleading.

Blending history with mystery creates a rich backdrop, but I'm curious whether this approach was planned from the start or developed during writing.
