註釋
Three novels in one volume: “Donald Thomas masterfully evokes the flavor of Doyle’s original stories of the great detective” (
Publishers Weekly
).
In these sixteen tales of intellectual derring-do, Sherlock Holmes is shown at the height of his powers: He co-operates with a young Winston Churchill in the famed siege of Sydney Street; helps defeat a plan for a German invasion outlined in the Zimmerman Telegram; establishes a link between two missing lighthouse keepers and the royal treasures of King John; contends with a supernatural curse placed upon an eccentric aristocrat; and discovers a lost epic poem of Lord Byron. Everywhere in these finely wrought tales, encompassing the critically acclaimed
The Execution of Sherlock Holmes, Sherlock Holmes and the King’s Evil
, and
Sherlock Holmes and the Ghosts of Bly
, riddles and mystery hover in the air. But they are not beyond the grasp of the incomparable Sherlock Holmes.
