About the book

Although Holmes is the subject of just one of the stories in this collection, all 12 contain elements of intrigue: a Polish detective trying to determine whether an author planted clues to a real murder in his novel: an investigator racing to prove whether a man about to be executed is innocent; and scientists stalking a sea monster.
