Sherlock Holmes in The Adventure of the Double Carnival (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798244398922)

When celebrated escape artist Valentina Moreau is found dead in her locked caravan at Grimwood's Grand Carnival, the police quickly rule it suicide. The evidence seems irrefutable: a bolted door, sealed windows, and a glass of poisoned wine beside her lifeless body. But Silas Grimwood refuses to accept it. Days before her death, Valentina signed a lucrative contract for an American tour-why would a woman on the verge of success take her own life?

As Holmes and Watson navigate the carnival's world of fire-eaters, strongmen, and mysterious "scientific demonstrations," they uncover not a simple murder, but an elaborate fraud that turned deadly when greed overcame honor among thieves. Trapped aboard a sabotaged Ferris wheel high above the carnival grounds, Holmes and Watson must survive long enough to expose a murderer who has turned Victorian engineering into an instrument of death.
