<b>Suspenseful stories from “the all-time best at Sherlockian pastiche” (<i>Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine</i>).</b><br><br> Drugged, manacled, condemned to a dank cell in the depths of London’s infamous Newgate prison, the world’s greatest literary detective awaits execution by a vengeful crew of formidable enemies. Escape is impossible; death, a certainty. But not for Sherlock Holmes, who, in a stunning display of intellect and derring-do, will elude his hangman’s noose and live to fiddle, spy, and ratiocinate another day.
