Description
xDEAD ON THE DOLMEN is the first mystery novel featuring Oscar Tremont, Investigator of the Strange and Inexplicable, hailed by one reviewer as a "modern-day Sherlock Holmes" and a "mystery-solving maniac". FAIR-PLAY MYSTERY
PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR
CLUES AND RED HERRINGS
MYSTERY IN BRITTANY Was this a bizarre joke? Someone in training for Halloween? But the local youngsters weren't capable of playing a trick like this. Every detail was chillingly accurate, just as legend had it. The figure wore a long black coat and a black hat with a brim so broad it blocked David's view of the head. The two tassels which were the ends of the hatband were whipped about by the wind, and the silver buckle in the middle of the hatband shone under the haunting yellow light from the small cart's two lamps, which hung from upright posts. One black horse was attached to the cart and waiting patiently. 'The Ankou!' David mouthed, hardly daring to utter the horrid name, and as if hearing him, the head rose, looking straight up at the bedroom window. Its face was a gleaming skull with empty eye sockets as black as abandoned wells. David gasped as it raised the cruel, curved scythe into the air and slashed wildly in his direction. What the reviewers say about Oscar Tremont: "OSCAR TREMONT IS A CLEVER, CUNNING INVESTIGATOR who would rather solve an interesting mystery than get paid for a boring one, much to his wife's consternation. The characters and situations are fun, quirky, and will leave you clamoring for more. Oscar Tremont is a perfect addition to that club of literary super-sleuths that includes C. Auguste Dupin and Sherlock Holmes." "Oscar is NOT YOUR TYPICAL PRIVATE DETECTIVE. He's more interested in satisfying his own curiosity than letting justice have its way. That, to me, makes him A FLAWED CHARACTER but also gives a different and UNPREDICTABLE EDGE TO THE STORIES. You never know what the final outcome of each case will be." "Oscar seems to be A LITTLE BIT OF POIROT, A LITTLE BIT OF SHERLOCK, AND PERHAPS A PINCH OF SHAGGY FROM SCOOBY-DOO and I mean those things in the best of ways."
