Every night at precisely 7:19 p.m., Tina L. Jones turns on her porch light. To her quiet Georgia neighborhood, it’s just a lonely woman’s strange habit—maybe she’s waiting for a lost love, a child, or simply clinging to routine. But Tina knows the truth is much deeper… and much darker. When a mysterious letter appears at her door, scrawled with the words “You were right. It’s still here.” Tina is thrust back into a haunting mystery she tried to forget—the disappearance of a gifted student named Miles Carter and the secrets surrounding a beloved teacher who may not be who he seems.

Amid the sharp angles and soft rain of Bristol, Maggie Kross moves through life with a beauty that opens doors—and slams others shut.

When a spilled drink and a quiet apology bring her face-to-face with Martin Thompson, a man who sees beyond surfaces, Maggie finds herself unmoored. He’s nothing like the world she’s built walls against—steady, sincere, disarmingly kind. Yet in a city that never stops watching, every glance between them feels like a gamble.

1888 was a busy year for Holmes and Watson. If Dr. Watson is to be believed, The Sign of Four, A Scandal in Bohemia, and The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor all took place in this year (I would also argue that The Valley of Fear is set in the same year — ed.). As if that weren’t enough, 1888 is remembered (albeit infamously) as the year that Jack the Ripper unleashed an autumn of terror on the citizens of London. While there are no Holmes vs. the Ripper stories in this volume, the authors of the later stories have all alluded to the atmosphere of terror permeating Holmes’s London at that time.
