The Beekeeper's Apprentice

3.5* rounded up to 4 because I have a little literary crush on Russell. She's the perfect partner for King's version of Holmes.

There's exotic travels, masterful disguises and real threats to life. Familiar characters were rounded out nicely and new ones fitted in well. However, I wasn't surprised by the villain and found the ending slightly humdrum after the previous fun and games.

I'm quite surprised that so many of these have been written. I'll definitely read at least another one or two to see if King can keep this up.
