When a second victim is discovered days later, burned in the same impossible fashion, whispers begin to spread along the riverside: something enormous, something wreathed in blue and crackling light, is walking the Wapping fog by night.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are summoned to a case unlike any in their long career - one that will lead them from a disused tannery wired with galvanic apparatus, to the confession of a brilliant physician undone by grief, to the drawing rooms of a peer of the realm with ambitions darker than either detective could have imagined. At the heart of it all stands a towering, patchwork figure the newspapers have already condemned as a monster: the Electric Man. But as Holmes peels back layer after layer of scientific horror and human tragedy, he begins to suspect that the truest danger in this case may not be the creature the press has learned to fear - but the men who hope to profit from it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlending the atmosphere of classic Holmes deduction with the gothic dread of Frankenstein, The Electric Man is a tale of galvanic science run tragically amok - of a father's grief pushed past every boundary of conscience, and of a detective forced to ask whether justice and mercy can ever truly be reconciled. Fans of Victorian mystery, scientific horror, and the timeless partnership of Holmes and Watson will find, in these pages, a case as haunting as it is unforgettable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA gripping Victorian mystery featuring: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eA classic Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson investigation, set amid the fog and gaslight of Victorian London\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eA brilliant, tragic scientist whose galvanic experiments cross the line between medicine and horror\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eA monstrous, sympathetic creature at the dark heart of the mystery\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hidden conspiracy reaching into the highest circles of power\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwenty-six chapters of atmospheric, richly detailed mystery and suspense\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePerfect for readers who love Sherlock Holmes pastiches, Victorian gothic fiction, and mysteries that ask what happens when science reaches for the one thing it was never meant to touch.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Collins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798187042982\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/13\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.34d","brand":"Mark Collins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49084320776447,"sku":"9798187042982","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-electric-man-mark-collins-9798187042982","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
