Description
Book Synopsis
Darkness clung to the early Baker Street morning as Dr Watson opened the front door. The night watchman held out a small slither of paper. Written faintly upon this were just two short words: "Help me."
Sherlock Holmes must use all of his remarkable powers of deduction to identify the author of this desperate plea. His investigations lead him and his companion into a murky conspiracy - a sinister secret society plotting a fiendish scheme that could destroy the British economy and bring down the government.
From a thunderous carriage chase through the streets of London to a deadly shootout on a remote island off the North-East coast of England, can Holmes and Watson uncover the dark secret that lies within the sinister 'Ex Tenebris' club?
Review Quotes
The new novel from the author of "Sherlock Holmes: The Adventure of The Pigtail Twist"
"The great sleuth is back! Soaring, swooping, epic. Baffling crimes, ingenious cold deduction, masterfully drawn creative and destructive tensions in 221B Baker Street and London's squalid slums. Astride it all, Holmes is magisterial. THE ADVENTURE OF THE PIGTAIL TWIST has it all. This is vintage Holmes: intensely atmospheric and fiendishly clever. It's authentic to a tee. I couldn't put it down. A real delight."
Dominic Selwood (Bestselling author of 'The Sword of Moses' & 'The Apocalypse Fire')
