In its starred review, PW praised The Game, Laurie R. King's seventh novel in her series featuring Mary Russell and her partner and husband, Sherlock Holmes, as "the best [adventure] King has yet devised for her strong-willed heroine"—and readers have agreed! After just three weeks on sale, it has nearly 40,000 copies in print after two trips to press. It's King's bestselling Bantam Hardcover Russell/Holmes adventure to date and the author now makes her debut on our bestseller list. King, who has won both the Edgar and the John Creasey Awards for Best First Crime Novel, is currently doing a 10-city author tour.
