I've been reading a ton of nonfiction lately, so it was a nice break to get through a fiction title. Laurie R. King's fifth Mary Russell book, "O Jerusalem", goes back to the time of "The Beekeeper's Apprentice". In the first book, Mary and Sherlock go to Palestine after Sherlock has been injured by the bomb in his beehive. This book tells us what happened during that time, before Mary and Sherlock were married.
While in Jerusalem, they uncover and thwart a plot to blow up the Dome of the Rock (at least, I think that's what was happening. I got lost a few times). It was actually pretty good, I enjoyed it (despite not really knowing what the heck was going on most of the time). Not as good as the first one, but definitely better than the last few.
