Sherlock Holmes Adventure (MacBird)

A snowy December, 1888. A strangely encoded letter arrives from Paris. Mlle La Victoire, a beautiful cabaret star, writes that her illegitimate son by an English lord has disappeared. Racing to Paris with Watson at his side, will Holmes find the missing boy and stop a rising tide of murders? To do so he must stay one step ahead of a dangerous French rival and the interference of his own brother, Mycroft.

December 1889: A beautiful client arrives with a tale of ghosts, kidnapping and dynamite on a whisky estate in Scotland, but Mycroft trumps all with an urgent assignment in France. On the fabled Riviera, Holmes and Watson make a terrible discovery that propels the duo northward to the snowy highlands. There, in a 'haunted' castle and among the copper dinosaurs of a great whisky distillery, Holmes realises all three cases have blended into a single, deadly conundrum.

It's Christmastime in London, and Sherlock Holmes takes on two cases. The angelic three-year-old child of a wealthy couple is the target of a vicious kidnapper, and a country aristocrat worries that his handsome, favourite son has mysteriously vanished from his London pied à terre. Holmes and Watson, aided by the colourful Heffie O'Malley, slip slide in the ice to ensure a merry Christmas is had by everybody...

Holmes and Watson face treachery and danger in the latest full-length thriller by Bonnie MacBird, author of the bestselling Sherlock Holmes novel “Art in the Blood.” Murder, jealousy, and deceit underscore three interlocking mysteries as Holmes and Watson take on a high-profile case at Windsor Castle, a boy drowned in the Serpentine, and a crusading women's rights activist who suspects a traitor in her organisation. The cases send them into danger into locales as varied as the palace itself, a dockland cannery, an arts and crafts atelier, and a gypsy encampment. But is there peril underfoot as well—right at 221B Baker Street? The twisting, breathlessly plotted conjoined mysteries that Bonnie MacBird is known for provide a thrill ride that will delight Sherlockians worldwide.
