Publisher's Summary

From the acclaimed author of Sherlock Holmes and The Christmas Demon comes another beautifully presented seasonal mystery.

The year 1889. The First Terror.

At a boys’ prep school in the Kent marshes, a pupil is found drowned in a pond. Could this be the fulfilment of a witch’s curse from 400 years earlier?

The year 1890. The Second Terror.

A wealthy man dies of a heart attack at his London townhouse. Was he really frightened to death by ghosts?

The year 1894. The Third Terror.

A body is discovered at a Surrey country manor, hideously ravaged. Is the culprit a cannibal, as the evidence suggests?

These three linked crimes test Sherlock Holmes’ deductive powers, and his skepticism about the supernatural, to the limit.

Listen to the end

The Watson character makes some terrible deductions (not just being mistaken) and there are moments of anachronisms, but still quite enjoyable.

I need to be careful about spoilers, but just be sure to listen to the end.

A Lemon Entry, my dear Watson

fairly good pastiche of ACD's florid prose style, with some suitably Holmesian plot twists, and the narrator does a decent job of voicing the characters.
