Synopsis

Across these seven cases, Holmes is drawn into investigations that range from private concerns to matters with wider consequences. A query from Lestrade about his cousin takes him back to a world left behind after the affair of The Five Orange Pips, while a body found at the base of Tower Bridge leads to the discovery of a hidden cult until Holmes and the British Secret Service intervene.

Elsewhere, Scotland Yard brings an old acquaintance and a plot involving Russian spies, and retirement is interrupted by the discovery of a partially buried corpse. The collection also takes Holmes and Watson to Hull over a cheating allegation with potential embarrassment for the heir to the throne, to Hungary for a funeral that reignites a centuries-old feud, and to a gathering showcasing goods and food from Borneo that ends in a mysterious death. Suitable for readers who enjoy new pastiche adventures featuring Sherlock Holmes.
