Love this!

This is one of the best in that series. It’s fast paced, has action and mystery, and also I learned some interesting historical facts. The narration is great

OK.. but only if it's free of charge...

S/he pursed his/her lips in a silent whistle...

These people just love to whistle. Silently. All of them! Everywhere they go. No matter what happens...
They also love to make silly remarks in modern American idiom while blithely purporting to live in the era of Sherlock Holmes...

At least they get kidnapped. A lot. In regular rotation. In every book.

And they travel in hansome cabs.
And visit big houses.
And knock people down.
And introspect most reliably.

And the narrators do their best.
All very entertaining.

As long as it's free.
