Description
Readers who revel in a fool-proof murder mystery, who want fast pace, action and wit, and who delight in the Sherlock Holmes legend will find this a superb adventure in suspense. When a Hollywood studio announces plans to film a Conan Doyle classic, it arouses the ire of a group of Sherlock Holmes aficionados. Soon, all sorts of thrilling things begin to happen – a murder with a disappearing corpse, cryptograms, a couple of cock-eyed adventures in the best Holmes tradition and all the odd trimmings, including a Watson who is a cop, not a doctor.
