Paula Hammond: The Infinitely Stranger Cases of Sherlock Holmes, Gebunden

Klappentext

"My dear fellow," said Sherlock Holmes, as we sat at either side of the fire in his lodgings at Baker Street, "life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. There is," the great detective commented, "nothing so unnatural as the commonplace."

From Cornish devils, to Welsh witches, from Ghazi genies, to Covent Garden mediums, from pagan sacrifices, to mummies' curses, The Infinitely Stranger Cases of Sherlock Holmescollects six canonical tales which test Holmes's ability to unravel the conspiracies, the misdirections, the strange, and the curious. The game is afoot.
