NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - WINNER OF THE AGATHA AWARD FOR BEST HISTORICAL NOVEL - NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST MYSTERIES OF THE YEAR BY THE SEATTLE TIMESLaurie R. King's novels of suspense featuring Mary Russell and her husband, Sherlock Holmes, are critically acclaimed and beloved by readers for the author's adept interplay of history and adventure. Now the intrepid duo is finally trying to take a little time for themselves--only to be swept up in a baffling case that will lead them from the idyllic panoramas of Japan to the depths of Oxford's most revered institution. After a lengthy case that had the couple traipsing all over India, Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes are on their way to California to deal with some family business that Russell has been neglecting for far too long. Along the way, they plan to break up the long voyage with a sojourn in southern Japan. The cruising steamer Thomas Carlyle is leaving Bombay, bound for Kobe. Though they're not the vacationing types, Russell is looking forward to a change of focus--not to mention a chance to travel to a location Holmes has not visited before. The idea of the pair being on equal footing is enticing to a woman who often must race to catch up with her older, highly skilled husband. Aboard the ship, intrigue stirs almost immediately. Holmes recognizes the famous clubman the Earl of Darley, whom he suspects of being an occasional blackmailer: not an unlikely career choice for a man richer in social connections than in pounds sterling. And then there's the lithe, surprisingly fluent young Japanese woman who befriends Russell and quotes haiku. She agrees to tutor the couple in Japanese language and customs, but Russell can't shake the feeling that Haruki Sato is not who she claims to be. Once in Japan, Russell's suspicions are confirmed in a most surprising way. From the glorious city of Tokyo to the cavernous library at Oxford, Russell and Holmes race to solve a mystery involving international extortion, espionage, and the shocking secrets that, if revealed, could spark revolution--and topple an empire. Praise for Dreaming Spies " Holmes and Russell's] unusual partnership is, as always, a delight to observe, and King expertly combines rich historical detail, deftly drawn characters and taut suspense. For Holmes fans, mystery lovers and those interested in either Japan or Oxford, this novel is a multilayered and entirely enjoyable journey."--Shelf Awareness "Compulsively readable . . . Through astute, precise, and elegant writing, great attention to time and place, and beautifully realized characters, King has created a mystery series that is at once intelligent, reflective, and action filled."--Library Journal "A story that keeps the reader enthralled . . . one of the most consistently outstanding mystery series out there. Any time spent with the Russell-Holmes duo is a delight."--Booklist "Snappy prose and a captivating plot distinguish King's fourteenth novel featuring Mary Russell and her husband, Sherlock Holmes. . . . Many will find the character deepened by his partnership with the spirited and clever Russell."--Publishers Weekly "The author continues to offer up incredible plotlines. . . . Holmes and Russell's] emotional bond only adds to the magic, suspense, and beauty of the original creation. King's imagination continues to shine "--Suspense Magazine " King] manages more surprises than usual in this graceful exercise in cultural tourism-cum-intrigue."--Kirkus Reviews

White is not white its Gold
Color: 100ml #01-Pearl White, Color: 100ml #01-Pearl White
I thought the white was going to actually be white but the glitter is gold. My fault for not double checking. Its still pretty just not what I wanted.

HEALTHY, SAFE, and nice shiny bronzer!
Color: 100ml #03-Bronze Gold
PLEASE buy a body shimmer like this that uses synthetic mica powder (or real mica) instead of the ones that use legit plastic glitter omg.
I have the most sensitive skin and have hives most of the time and I had no reaction to this!
the shimmer on this is insane, like so good, and it bronzes you. I put this on my legs, like just a little, and I looked very bronze and shimmery.
i don't like to love products or companies but I love this stuff. also it smells so good. very fresh.
I will say the shimmer transfers to clothes JUST A LITTLE. but I want to be sparkly all the time so yeah.

My Go-To Toner After Trying Many Others
Scent: Unscented, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried many toners over the years, including higher-end brands, and this one continues to stand out for both performance and price. It does exactly what I need without unnecessary extras.
The formula feels gentle and effective, and I really appreciate that it’s alcohol free and fragrance free. Those two things are especially important to me, and this has been the only toner I’ve felt comfortable using during pregnancy. It doesn’t irritate my skin and fits easily into my daily routine.
Despite the affordable price, it performs just as well—if not better—than many more expensive options I’ve used in the past. My skin feels clean and refreshed after using it, without any tightness or residue.
Overall, this is a reliable, no-nonsense toner that delivers great results at a very reasonable price. If you’re looking for a simple, fragrance-free option that works well without breaking the bank, this is an easy recommendation.

Liquid facial magic!
Scent: Coconut Water, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this stuff. I use it daily as part of my facial routine and it has become one of those products I don’t even think about anymore because it just works.
It smells good without being overpowering and does a great job of helping control excessive oil buildup on my face. Nothing harsh, nothing drying, just clean and refreshed skin. Right after using this, I follow up with a facial moisturizer and the combo works beautifully. My skin feels balanced instead of tight or angry, which is exactly what I’m going for.
I know the label says men can use this as an aftershave, but that’s a hard pass for me. I stick to soothing, purpose-built post-shave products, specifically from Wholly Kaw. That stuff smells like it was handcrafted by skincare deities who truly care about your face. This toner is staying firmly in the “daily skincare” lane, where it shines.
Another big plus is how gentle it is. No burning, no weird tingling, no regret. Just a calm, refreshing step that makes my skin feel like it’s being treated with respect.
And the price? Under $10. That alone keeps me coming back. Honestly, I think they could charge a few dollars more for how well this performs, but I won’t complain about paying less for fantastic facial liquid magic.
Simple, effective, affordable, and a permanent part of my routine. My face approves.
