Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SHERLOCK HOLMES AND THE DEADLY SECRETS is a Victorian/Edwardian detective fiction collection featuring Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, Mycroft Holmes, as well as several other characters of the Holmesian universe created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The following six stories are included in this volume: SECRET CHILD Miss Clara Anderson, a young Canadian heiress visiting England, seeks out Sherlock Holmes, hoping he can save the life of her fiancé, Simon Martel-who insists on keeping silent in the face of a murder charge and the possibility of ending up on the gallows. What terrible secret can force an honorable young man to accept such a horrible fate? Can Sherlock Holmes discover the truth in time to save his client's engagement? SECRET HAND After a meeting with Sherlock Holmes, Sir Albert Allerton returns home and (apparently) decides to commit suicide along with his wife. Sherlock Holmes must discover the truth about these and other deaths linked to an old Allerton family secret. Were they all suicides, or the result of something unfathomably grimmer? SECRET GAME In the absence of Sherlock Holmes, his brother Mycroft helps to solve a deadly mystery - while sitting on a sofa in Holmes and Watson's apartment at 221B Baker Street. There's another mystery besides the crime - and Mycroft Holmes will solve that one, too. SECRET PRINCE A few days before King Edward VII's rescheduled coronation (9 August 1902), a plea for help mysteriously signed "I. Adler" lures Sherlock Holmes, his brother Mycroft, and Doctor Watson, into solving a murder at the center of an international intrigue while trying to avoid a scandal that could damage the royal event. SECRET NAME Samarkand. Could the name of an ancient city at the heart of the Silk Road be the key to solving a murder - and help save the life of a wrongly accused man? Sherlock Holmes will get to the bottom of this mystery, summon the ghosts of erstwhile tragedies, and expose the truth behind a carefully hidden name. SECRET GUILT London, 1905. Under the pretext of retrieving some books he has left behind at Number 221B, Sherlock Holmes temporarily trades his small farm upon the Downs, five miles from Eastbourne, and his beehives, for Baker Street. Before he has time to unpack his Gladstone, however, there's already a client at the door asking for his help with a case. So much for retirement...

Moreover, the man is horribly scarred and has no memory of who he is. The detectives discover that the inmate was once a scientist, a student of Miskatonic University, and one of two survivors of a doomed voyage down the Miskatonic River to capture the semi-mythical shoggoth. Yet how has he ended up in London, without his wits? And when the man is taken from Bedlam by forces beyond normal mortal comprehension, it becomes clear that there is far more to the case than one disturbed Bostonian. It is only by learning what truly happened on that fateful New England voyage that Holmes and Watson will uncover the truth, and learn who is behind the Miskatonic monstrosity…

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ninth and final Minnesota mystery, in which Shadwell Rafferty, with the inimitable Sherlock Holmes, may have solved his own murder Like many mysteries, this one begins with a murder. But in this case the victim happens to be the detective, on the verge of revealing the culprit in an earlier crime. Had Shadwell Rafferty identified his own murderer? When news of Rafferty’s death reaches Sherlock Holmes, in Chicago on the last leg of an American speaking tour, the world’s most famous detective and his redoubtable companion Watson rush to Minnesota to hunt for their friend’s killer. Set amid the glittering society and sordid underworld of 1928 St. Paul, Larry Millett’s ninth and final Shadwell Rafferty mystery takes readers through the serpentine twists of Rafferty’s fatal investigation, even as Holmes, following in Rafferty’s tracks, may be closing in on the answer to both cases. This ingenious double mystery takes us to every corner of St. Paul, from the city’s most notorious speakeasy to a home for unwed mothers to the mansions of Summit Avenue, and at every turn we find another suspect: an ambitious mayor and his devoted fixer-in-chief, a heartless blackmailer and a police detective mired in city hall connections, a poet-turned-mystery writer with a suspicious coterie, and a priest hiding a terrible secret. A mysterious woman in Minneapolis who makes certain illicit arrangements and a young man in possession of incriminating documents provide Holmes with vital clues that lead to a final confrontation with an exceptionally devious murderer worthy of the exceptionally devious plot that brings the Minnesota mystery series to a fitting and powerful conclusion.
