In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Anna Castle discusses her Professor & Mrs. Moriarty mystery series. In this unique series, Anna turns the Sherlock Holmes canon on its head. What if Professor Moriarty wasn’t evil, but simply misunderstood? In this series, Anna has Professor Moriarty falling in love and solving mysteries. Anna’s Moriarty is brilliant, stoic, introverted and a good guy, not an evil criminal mastermind. If you are a Sherlock Holmes fan or enjoy historical mysteries, you’ll want to check out Anna’s Professor & Mrs. Moriarty series for a unique take on the genre. Anna is also the author two other mystery series set in Elizabethan England: The Francis Bacon Mysteries, featuring philosopher-statesman Francis Bacon as a sleuth and spymaster, and the Cunning Woman Mysteries, in which a young woman who is a healer or “cunning woman” solves murder mysteries in a small English town full of fairies, witches and assorted magic. In this episode, I’ll chat with Anna about her writing journey, her love of research and learning, and why she considers libraries to be her second home.
