Sherlock Holmes: The Gods of Mischief (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798188981716)

When a missing necklace brings a troubled client to Baker Street, Sherlock Holmes expects a trivial domestic theft. Instead, he and Dr. Watson uncover a thief lying dead with a fresh surgical scar behind his ear - the first in a series of unexplained deaths in London's East End.

As more young men vanish, Holmes, Watson, Inspector Peter Evans, and Bill Wiggins must navigate a maze of misdirection and fear. Someone is orchestrating chaos from the shadows - and unless Holmes can uncover the unseen hand guiding it, another life will be lost.

The Gods of Mischief is the newest entry in The Watson Chronicles, a series of Holmes adventures told with faithful Victorian voice, rich atmosphere, and the emotional depth of Watson's perspective. Each novel stands alone, yet together they form a portrait of Holmes and Watson at their most human - and most brilliant.

Perfect for readers who love:

• classic Sherlock Holmes

• Granada-style adaptations

• Victorian mysteries

• dark, atmospheric thrillers

• character-driven detective fiction
