Mémoires de Mary Watson

At the age of 27, Mary Morstan has nothing but her job as a paid companion for Mrs. Forrester. Without a dowry, she is facing a life of spinsterhood, ekeing out a living on the fringe society with similar jobs and little hope of more than the shaky security they offer. When Mrs. Forrester discovers some personal letters missing, she calls in Sherlock Holmes, and with him, Dr. Watson. Attracted by his courtesy, his bright smile, and his sun-bronzed appearance, Mary immediately falls in love, and Dr. Watson seems to be attracted to the poor but lovely Mary.
