Book Description
San Cassimally reunites detective Sherlock Holmes and the ingenious Irene Adler in a series of seven riveting mysteries. But the pair doesn't always work in unison. Holmes, constrained by the rule of law, must rely on his observational skills, logic, and scientific knowledge to crack each case. Adler, working in a less official capacity, is not beneath using unconventional tactics. The result is the classic banter that Holmes fans have enjoyed for decades. In the investigator's latest thrilling adventures, Holmes has to take action when he fears that Adler plans to wreak dire vengeance on an evil politician. What follows is a two-pronged race to find answers as the two investigate cases of murder, corruption, injustice, and supernatural manifestations. In more than just a game of cat and mouse, the dynamic investigators come together to explore the Victorian era's darker side as they investigate cases of child exploitation by nobility and take a stand for those who cannot defend themselves. While Adler's resourcefulness and ingenuity prepare her for almost every situation, she isn't ready for the painful truth about Mycroft Holmes as she investigates the death of a young man. Following the compelling Irene Adler Trilogy, Cassimally's latest page-turning mysteries give Sherlock Holmes fans another reason to celebrate the intriguing duo.

Book Description
Irene Adler is the only woman ever to have outwitted Sherlock Holmes... and the one who has come closest to stealing his heart. She has competed (and sometimes cooperated) with the famous fictional detective over six popular and acclaimed novels, featuring her daring investigations across the Continent. All along, the beautiful and brilliant American diva-turned-detective has managed to conceal her background and history, even from her dashing barrister husband, Godfrey Norton, and her devoted companion and biographer, English spinster Nell Huxleigh. But she has had some help along the way to do this, from such unlikely sources as the Baron de Rothschild, Sarah Bernhardt, and Bram Stoker, as well as the soon-to-be-infamous Nellie Bly, a daring American journalist who helped Irene hunt Jack the Ripper. Now Nellie has wired Irene some astounding news, news that will shake her world: Irene's mother is the target of an assassin. Irene's past is shrouded in secrecy, and at first she is unwilling to divulge anything that would link her to America. But a series of bizarre killings in New York City draws her reluctantly back to her native country, where she must race with a murderer to find her mother, a woman of mystery who may turn out to be the most notorious woman of the nineteenth century. As Irene forges a trail into her own hidden past, Nellie Bly draws another ace investigator across the Atlantic to join in the hunt for a serial killer, the last man on earth Irene Adler wants to discover anything about her shocking past... Sherlock Holmes. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
