Sherlock Holmes and the Lady in Black

De: June Thomson

Narrado por: Gordon Griffin

Sherlock Holmes has left the Baker Street days of crime and detection behind to retire to a small Sussex cottage overlooking the sea where he can focus on his new hobbies: beekeeping and photography. But when a shadowy figure is seen walking below the cliffs one night, Holmes cannot resist the temptation of solving one more mystery. He summons his old flatmate and confidant, Dr Watson, to help. Against the backdrop of the stormy Sussex coast, desirable women and suspicious men weave an engaging and complex case.

This is not a whodunnit

This is a well written story but it is not a whodunnit - which is the expectation of a Holmes novel. There is no murder except of the soul. Holmes is curious about an unhappy lady he saw on the beach one night and he uses his deductive skills to find out who had killed the lady’s spirit and soul. There is a lot of genealogy stuff and family drama. Whatever genre this is, this is not a Holmes and Watson story.
