THE ADVENTURE OF THE PHARAOH'S CURSE (The Assassination of Sherlock Holmes Book 1)
October, 1909. Sherlock Holmes has been retired to the South Downs for six years, resisting all entreaties to return to his career as the world’s foremost consulting detective. But the brutal murder of one of his former colleagues from Scotland Yard has finally galvanized him back into action. Dr. Watson at his side, Holmes journeys to London’s British Museum, where a series of singular disappearances have taken place. With the museum staff convinced that the curse of a four thousand year-old pharaoh is emanating from the Egyptian Gallery, it is up to Holmes to prove that the worst horrors come from the minds of men. But will the echoes of the past prove to be his undoing? *** This fully annotated edition contains a cornucopia of scholarly insights that compare this newly unearthed tale by Dr. John H. Watson to the classic adventures from the Canon of Sherlock Holmes.
