Summary
It’s the season of peace and goodwill, but a Victorian Christmas is no holiday for the world’s most popular detective in this new book from Bonnie MacBird, author of the bestselling Sherlock Holmes novel Art in the Blood. It’s Christmastime in London, and Sherlock Holmes takes on two cases. The angelic three-year-old child of a wealthy couple is the target of a vicious kidnapper, and a country aristocrat worries that his handsome, favourite son has mysteriously vanished from his London pied à terre. Holmes and Watson, aided by the colourful Heffie O’Malley, slip slide in the ice to ensure a merry Christmas is had by nearly everybody . . . In this historical fiction, the suspense is palpable as the top detective, Sherlock Holmes, navigates the mystery of the season. The traditional thrillers take a backseat as this tale of crime and police procedural unfolds in the heart of Victorian London. For fans of James Lovegrove (Sherlock Holmes), Anthony Horowitz (The Twist of a Knife), Tim Major (Sherlock Holmes and The Twelve Thefts of Christmas), Christian Klaver (The Classified Dossier), and M. K. Wiseman (Sherlock Holmes & the Ripper of Whitechapel). HarperCollins 2022
