Do you like your Sherlock Holmes stories with a hint of the preternatural, the seemingly inexplicable, the Gothic?
Selecting six of the darkest and most suspenseful cases from author Compton Thorne’s The Continuing Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes, and assembling them together for the first time in one cover, here we find mysteries set amid shadowy forests, inside manor houses with long histories of hauntings, and out on deserted, moonlit moors. This collection also includes a return to the infamous Baskerville Hall scene of Sherlock Holmes’ most celebrated investigation.
This unique anthology is for those who like their visits to the Victorian era to come with a hint of things that tint the nighttime air with an unnatural chill. Included are:
The Devil of Baskerville Hall, in which Holmes and Watson return to Dartmoor, summoned by Sir Henry Baskerville, whose young bride appears to be tormented by a nightmare figure straight out of a family legend even darker than that of the terrifying hound….
The Yew Alley Ghost, sees Sherlock Holmes, recently arisen from what was nearly his own deathbed, venture to a country manor, where a young boy, obsessed with the legend of a ghostly haunting in the estate’s yew alley, goes missing in the night….
The Witches of the Gray Forest concerns one of the oldest woods in Britain, the foggy Gray Forest, marked by centuries of sinister legends concerning occupation by a coven of witches, where a man is found dead under the shadows of the trees in the aftermath of bizarre, doll-like figures scattered near his cottage, warnings telling him to leave the forest, or pay a terrible price….
The Case of the Snowdonia Werewolf has Sherlock Holmes venturing to the deserted moors of Wales, a landscape seemingly suspended in time, where at each recent full moon, a creature said to come straight out of ancient lore has appeared to leave behind a trail of rampage and death….
The Haunting of the Jersey Lily begins when one of the most famous women in the nation begs Holmes’ aid, claiming that her late estranged husband has returned from the grave to appear to her in the night, demanding she come with him….
The Adventure of the Séance Society begins with a challenge, as the ever-rational consulting detective is invited to attend a séance at the headquarters of a spiritualist society, enticed with the claim that a convicted child-murderer Holmes sent to the gallows now seeks vengeance from the beyond, claiming Holmes has sent an innocent man to his death.
These six tales, set in places where the veil between realities is at its thinnest, are sure to thrill aficionados of the supernatural, and fans of the world’s most famous detective alike!
