About The Book
Set in the early 20th century, when Sherlock Holmes was at the peak of his popularity, Lady Molly of Scotland Yard introduced readers to one of fiction’s earliest female detectives—Lady Molly Robertson-Kirk. Created by Baroness Emma Orczy, famed for The Scarlet Pimpernel, Lady Molly worked at Scotland Yard in a time when women were not yet part of real-life detective forces.
First published in 1910, the book quickly became a bestseller, with three editions released within a year. Lady Molly's sharp intellect and keen sense of justice positioned her alongside the greatest fictional detectives, even paving the way for iconic figures like Miss Marple. The collection includes twelve compelling stories, most of which feature women as central characters, bringing the charm and elegance of Edwardian England to life.
This Bengali translation, published for the first time by Montage, offers readers a chance to rediscover these pioneering detective tales in a new language and cultural context—bringing Lady Molly closer to a whole new generation of readers.
