  The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - Volume 5:
  Throughout many years, Dr. John H. Watson accompanied his friend and companion Sherlock Holmes in solving countless mysteries and crimes. Beginning in the 1880s and into the 20th century, Holmes consistently held his status as the world’s most brilliant and successful detective. His accomplishments were painstakingly chronicled by Watson in notes that relate the adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Many of his accounts have been published and are well-known to a broad readership.
  There were times, however, when Watson would refrain from publishing his writings during his lifetime. He would do so for various reasons: At times, he would find himself forced to keep actual events and background information secret for moral, criminal, or financial reasons. Other times, he would want to either avoid potential political, legal, or social scandals or even damage to his own—or Holmes’s—reputation. Some of Watson’s accounts, however, were simply not published at the time because he was occupied with more important or urgent matters.
  The New Adventures brings to the public for the very first time some of Watson’s accounts of Sherlock Holmes cases previously kept under lock and key.

  The area around greater San Francisco was suffering through a killing spree, but not your “run-of-the-mill” killing spree, this perp was different. He didn’t just rape and kill, he actually “staged” his victims in public venues, like they were works of art. The people around San Francisco were freaking out and wanted answers. Everyone’s favorite billionaire, Mr. Araby Triplehorn, stepped up to find a solution. That solution? A quirky private investigator from Arizona, who had received national attention from success on other major cases, Blake Moran. While some would say that his tagline left something to be desired, “We Find Stuff”, his success rate was impressive and inarguable. This serial killer was a unique problem for Blake, and the investigation would get extremely personal, but could he stop this perp and his killing spree before the perp stopped him?

  She opened her mouth to scream, but he slapped something across her lips. The gag tasted of salt and mould, rough sacking on her tongue. 
   
  With a terrifying certainty, she knew she was going to die. 
   
  DI Geraldine Steel knows people go missing all the time; sometimes because they don't want to be found. So when her partner Ian asks her to look into the disappearance of his football-buddy's girlfriend, her first instinct is to reassure him there's no need for concern. 
   
  Until she's called to a suspected murder, and all her instincts tell her she's right about the identity of the victim. 
   
  The young woman has earth and leaf mould and fragments of twigs in her long fair hair, her nose, her mouth, under her finger nails, clinging to her clothes. It's as if she'd been completely encased in earth. And yet she was found on the pavement, at the side of a suburban road, where she wasn't in contact with any soil or mud. 
   
  Had she managed to escape a living grave? 
   
  Without a crime scene, the investigation focuses on her boyfriend. But Ian insists his friend is incapable of murder, and Steel is torn. Without evidence, she knows their case is weak. But without evidence, can she let a possible killer go free? 
   
  She needs to find out what really happened. Where did the assault occur? Why are there traces of DNA from two other unidentified sources on the body? What reason could there be to attack a popular young woman who never did anyone any harm? And why bury her body so carelessly that she was able to escape? 
   
  Then another young woman is reported missing. Unless he has an accomplice, they have an innocent man in custody. And Steel is running out of time . . .
