Beschreibung

The first meeting. The first case. The birth of a legend.
When war veteran Dr. John Watson returns to London and takes up residence with a strange but brilliant consulting detective named Sherlock Holmes, he expects little more than an unusual roommate. But when Scotland Yard is baffled by a brutal murder in an abandoned house—with no visible wound and the word "RACHE" scrawled on the wall—Watson is plunged into the world of Holmes's razor-sharp deductions and unparalleled intellect.

A Study in Scarlet is the first Sherlock Holmes novel, introducing the world to one of the most iconic detective duos in literary history. With its gripping murder mystery, dual timeline narrative, and shocking twists, this groundbreaking novel changed detective fiction forever.

"Where it all began—the origin of Sherlock Holmes, in all his eccentric, brilliant glory."
– The New York Times

"Still as clever and compelling as the day it was written."
– The Guardian

    An elite warrior. A double agent. A conspiracy that could burn the world to the ground. 
     
    David and Natalie Shaw have hunted traitors, dismantled shadow empires, and walked away from wars no one would admit were being fought. But when an allied operative turns on them, the result is a coordinated strike that cripples the West's most elite warriors—and shatters the Shaws' lives. 
     
    Faatin Radi served the Crown at the highest levels of Britain's military and intelligence services. But after uncovering a life-changing truth, he's armed himself with nuclear weapons, a vendetta that spans generations, and the intent to strike the United States' most revered strongholds. With allies compromised and enemies hiding in plain sight, Shaw and Natalie must pursue him across Europe, the Middle East, and the storm-tossed waters of the Mediterranean before the unthinkable happens. 
     
    Every step brings them closer to the center of their war against a hidden council acting as puppeteers, instigating global events, and pulling the strings of nations. And in a game where loyalty is a liability, the price of losing is a world left defenseless.

As a teenager, Hayley DaSilva walked into a nightmare, discovering the bodies of her mother, twin brother, and friend all brutally slaughtered in her home…and her nine-year-old brother missing.
