Synopsis

Thomas Howard of Missouri came out of nowhere, one foggy night, to rescue Countess Elaina Montague from rape and robbery. He was in England, he said, to find his brother, who had disappeared. To repay him, the beautiful Countess offered to enlist her friend, Sherlock Holmes, to help in the search. Despite investigating a rash of audacious jewel-thefts, and already spending altogether too much time at the music-hall, the Great Detective felt there was more to the mysterious Mr Howard, and accepted the case. With the case leading to their involvement in a vicious blood-feud, a spectacular daylight robbery and the possibility of a serious diplomatic incident Holmes and Watson must bring the case to a close, in a thrilling climax below the brooding River Thames.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Ben Bridges is a veteran western writer who has also written thrillers, horror stories, war stories, SF, thrillers, mysteries and romance. With his long-time friend Mike Stotter he is also a publisher, and his company, Piccadilly Publishing, specializes in reissuing series fiction from the 1970s to the present.

Ben's screenplay for the forthcoming movie SHADOW FLATS has been novelized by Brent Towns. "My passion for all things western started at a young age when the first movie I saw was How The West Was Won. From there it was mostly movies until I was 13 and a close family friend gave me a small bag of western books to read. And as they say, the rest is history. I would devour authors such as George G Gilman, Louis' L'Amour, and Marshall Grover. That, though, was only the tip of the iceberg. I would consider myself a late starter to the western genre because my first book, Last Stand in Sanctuary, wasn't written or published until 2015. Since then other titles have come along such as High Valley Manhunt, Fury At Bent Fork, Brolin, and coming from Piccadilly Publishing, the action-packed Drifter series."

David Whitehead is a prolific full-time writer/publisher best-known for the many westerns he has written under the name Ben Bridges.

British born Ivan Hayes first arrived in Hollywood in 1949 and moved there permanently in 1950. An actor for ten years, he worked in movies at MGM, Warner Bros., Paramount, Columbia, RKO, Universal Studios and the Samuel Goldwyn Studios as well as in early network television and radio.
