Summary:
“Have you ever noticed a ghost, Mr. Holmes?” asks Victoria Temple, and Sherlock Holmes, in the elevation of his forces in 1898, must face a new challenge, one which plunges the fantastic detective in to the realm of the supernatural. Miss Temple continues to be found guilty-but also insane-at her trial for murdering a child under her treatment. She is locked aside in the Broadmoor lunatic asylum, and worse still, she believes completely in her own guilt. But had been the hauntings in the Elizabethan manor house of Bly a eyesight about Sherlock Holmes and the Spirits of Bly of the strolling dead, perhaps, instead of delusions of her tormented mind? Or can it be that a legal conspiracy is to be blamed for the psychic phenomena, as well as a second murder cunningly concealed before?
In the company of Dr. Watson, the indefatiguable Holmes will locate the perpetrators through the occult underworld of Victorian London.
Next, on the eve of World War I, Holmes is normally confronted with fraud and forgery in the Royal Naval Academy in “The Case of a Boy’s Honor.” While back in London, behind the scenes from the Herculaneum Theater in the Strand, “THE SITUATION of the Matinee Idol” embroils Holmes and Watson straight in an apparent onstage murder. How do poison enter two Shakespearean goblets when just the victim, now dead, had access to them as well as the most likely suspect was a mile away with an unthinkable alibi?
