Goodreads asked Jane Isaac:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Jane Isaac First, I must apologise. I didn't receive a notification of this question and have only just seen it!

I guess I would have to say Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. The tactful, caring Dr Watson is the perfect balance for the enigmatic sociopath, Holmes. Conan Doyle's stories have been adapted so many times over the years, yet this partnership truly stands the test of time.

If I was looking for a more contemporary partnership however, I would plump for Lincoln Rhyme, Jeffery Deaver's quadriplegic investigator, and his troubled sidekick, Amelia Sachs. Together, they make for compelling reading.

Thanks for your question.
