Here is another cozy mystery theme… I have gone through all of my authors and found two who "borrow" characters from other authors. They are as follows:
Carrie Bebris… Bebris has an MA in English Lit, has been an editor, freelance writer, and college instructor. Her Mr. and Mrs. Darcy Mystery Series features two of the main characters from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Mrs. Darcy is Elizabeth Bennet, who, if you remember, married Mr. Darcy at the end of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice… obviously in England!
Barry S. Brown: Mrs. Hudson of Baker Street Mystery Series…
Carole Buggé: Sherlock Holmes Mystery Series…
Laurie R. King… King has an MA in Old Testament Theology, and writes the very popular Mary Russell Mystery Series which features Mary Russell, a protégé of Sherlock Holmes. I won't give all the details… but Sherlock Holmes is actually the partner/side-kick sleuth!
Lora Roberts…..Roberts writes the Mystery with Sherlock Holmes Mystery Series.
June Thomson…..Thomson writes the Sherlock Holmes Series.

I love religious themed mysteries like Sister Fidelma and Sister Carol Anne O’Marie. Can you recommend others?
Hi Patti,
I am so glad that you asked about this… I had started a list of religious-themed mysteries, and now I will get to work on them. I should be posting it shortly…
I love this site!! I spent all morning [several hours] printing out each authors’ series so as not to duplicate any “have reads”. With the additions to this site I now have 6 more authors of the “to be read” status.
I am sure some people think I go overboard but I watch little tv, and now with my authors in alphabetical order, it’s a snap to keep a eye out for their new releases.
Thank-you sooo much!
Hi Laura,
Thanks so much for writing and letting me know about your enjoyment of the site. I know that I have said this before… I LOVE to hear from site readers with their positive reviews of the site. You don’t sound “overboard” to me!
Thanks, again… I’m glad that you now have six new authors to explore…
