Mysteries with (Previously) Famous Fictional Characters:

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!

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.
