Stephen Munro, a demobbed army officer, reconciles himself to taking a job as a footman to make ends meet. Employed at Wintringham Hall, the delightful but decaying Sussex country residence of the elderly Lady Susan Carey, his first task entails welcoming her eccentric guests to a weekend house-party, at which her bombastic nephew—who recognises Stephen from his former life—decides that an after-dinner séance would be more entertaining than bridge. Then Cicely disappears!

It's a rainy, uneventful evening in the Oddfellows' Arms until a man bursts into the pub, clearly unstable, and ranting about a body in Fennings' Mill. The police investigate and stumble upon a body-the face smeared with theatrical make-up and a false mustache pasted neatly over the lip. Once the national news descends, Inspector Faddiman calls in Inspector Littlejohn to help him uncover the dark, hidden secrets in this quiet, provincial town. Soon it becomes clear that a lot of people can't, and won't tell the truth.

First appearing in print in 1890, the character of Sherlock Holmes has now become synonymous worldwide with the concept of a super sleuth. His creator, Conan Doyle, imbued his detective hero with intellectual power, acute observational abilities, a penchant for deductive reasoning and a highly educated use of forensic skills. Indeed, Doyle created the first fictional private detective who used what we now recognize as modern scientific investigative techniques.

You are invited to a murder. That was how the invitations should have read when aged millionaire Hendrik Brass sent out his messages to six oddly assorted men and women who knew neither him nor each other. All arrived at the isolated Brass mansion, lured by the tantalizing promise of fabulous wealth. But from the moment the shining brass doors of the grotesquely constructed house swung shut behind them, they began to realize they had been enticed into playing parts in a monstrous joke - the joke of a twisted, brilliant mind…

Once, the Lamartine Hotel was a quiet refuge for New York’s stuffy fashionable set. But by the 1890s, fashion has moved uptown, and the lobby of the Lamartine has been overtaken by natty young sports, who pass their afternoons with billiards or shows of noisy derring-do. Their preferred damsel is Lila Williams, a delicate young telegraph operator whose shyness so charms them that they resolve to defend her against any ill-behaved characters. They are about to face their fiercest challenger, who rides in the gleaming armor of a millionaire.

Reseñas editoriales
Master of occult mystery Sax Rohmer delivers frenetic action, electrifying suspense and a heart-pounding climax in this noir-esque period piece. Performer John Bolen’s suave baritone brims with debonair intrigue as he follows an international detective duo on the trail of a cloaked killer known as the Golden Scorpion. Bolen demonstrates his talent for accents and roleplaying as he personifies Rohmer’s exotic cast, including stealthy French detective Gaston Max, stoic Scotland Yard investigator Koeppel Stuart, and his sultry but deceptive love interest, her true identity shrouded behind countless aliases. Rohmer’s medley of adventure, suspense, exoticism, and the supernatural suggest what one might well expect of a Sherlock Holmes mystery told by Edgar Allan Poe.

most entertaining during the daily commute
The story was strange but entertaining. The end left a few people trapped in China - did I miss something - anyone out there can help me with the missing scientists still working for the scorpion? But there was love, sacrifice, deception, opium, international police - very nicely done.
