Synopsis

The eleven stories collected across these two volumes share a unifying thread: each is linked to the world of belles lettres and to literature more broadly. Some pieces connect to celebrated authors directly, while others draw on themes or stories associated with particular writers.

From Maupassant and Stevenson to Fitzgerald, the literary figures referenced here help explain the collection’s title. Yet the focus remains firmly in the tradition of Sherlock Holmes’s other adventures, with sketches that centre on a sequence of cold-blooded criminal acts, some described as more gruesome than others.
