The Star of India

A HAUNTED HOUSE Sherlock Holmes receives a request for aid from Lord Cary, whose family home, Torre Abbey, is seemingly haunted. While skeptical, Holmes believes that the Carys are in danger, a belief that proves horrifyingly accurate when a household member dies mysteriously. As strange sightings and threatening apparitions become almost commonplace, Holmes and Watson must uncover the secrets of the abbey if they are to have any hope of protecting the living and avenging the dead.

The Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - the Haunting of Torre Abbey

New York mystery editor Claire Rawlings spends her days scrutinizing the motives and methods of fictitious criminals--but her precocious thirteen-year-old friend Meredith Lawrence has a keen eye for the cold, hard facts of crime. So when Meredith comes to New York to visit, the two mystery buffs put their heads together to sleuth out the truth about a real-life murder. When Claire's star author, the ferociously flirtatious Blanche Dubois, is found dead after eating a poisoned apple, there's no shortage of suspects. Many who knew her were jealous of her success--and just as many were put off by her haughty, demanding demeanor. With the help of a city detective, Claire and Meredith question Blanche's friends, colleagues, and relatives--and discover that even in the Big Apple, the world of murder is a very small world indeed. "Who Killed Blanche Dubois is an absolutely delightful and wonderfully clued story ... captures the reader's imagination." -- Romantic Times, November 1999 "Who Killed Blanche Dubois? is the work of a seasoned professional and it shows... pure entertainment at its best...." -- Geraldine Galentree, Remember the Alabi

Sherlock Holmes Mystery Magazine #7

"Watson, do you believe in ghosts?" With this question, Sherlock Holmes shatters the calm of a quiet evening in their London flat and, with Dr. John Watson at his side, embarks upon a particularly strange case. Holmes has received a request for aid from Lord Charles Cary, whose family is seemingly being threatened by ghosts in and around the family manor. The manor is Torre Abbey, a twelfth-century monastery in Torquay, Devon, and it has a long history of hauntings. While skeptical of the supernatural, Holmes does believe that the Cary family is in danger-a belief which proves to be horrifyingly accurate when, shortly after they arrive at Torre Abbey, a household member dies suddenly, mysteriously, and seemingly of fright. As strange sightings and threatening apparitions become almost commonplace, Holmes must uncover the secrets of the haunted abbey and the family that lives there if he is to have any hope of protecting the living and avenging the dead. In a case that taxes his wits, and seems beyond the reach of his usual methods, Holmes must grapple with his most deadly and unforgiving foe.
