    The Assyrian Rejuvenator, published in 1907, is one of R. Austin Freeman's novels written under the name Clifford Ashdown and the first to feature well-known protagonist Dr. Thorndyke--a medical-legal forensic investigator. Although Freeman's early works were seen as simple homages to his contemporary, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, he quickly developed his own style--the 'inverted detective story'--in which the identity of the criminal is shown from the beginning, and the story then describes the detective's attempt to solve the mystery. In this tale, inflated claims about the powers of an expensive elixir put private investigator Romney Pringle in pursuit of a ruthless con man. The trickster has reason to believe that his customers won't complain, but Pingle sets out to destroy the crooked business.

    You need more Sherlock? You love the stories of The Canon but you want more ... more stories that are similar to the original sixty. You have come to the right place.
    The Adventure of the Winchester Heart-Breaker: 
    "To the man who loves intellectual stimulation," remarked Sherlock Holmes, "London in August is the lowliest month on the calendar. Those with the means to do so have departed for the Algarve and the Riviera. Those without are off to Blackpool and Brighton." "And what about those," I asked, "who are left behind? You and I are still here." "You at least have your sensational accounts of my efforts to keep scribbling. I, on the other hand, am losing faith in the enterprising criminal class. They appear to have faded into the great unobservant public and are somnambulating about the city, doing nothing more than stealing lead pencils from blind beggars."

    All families have secrets. Some protect. Others destroy. 
    Three sisters. A last wish from their dying mother. Can they forgive her? 
    Brenda Smith shouldn’t feel lucky – she’s only got months to live, if that. But knowing this means she’s got one final chance to make peace with the grown-up daughters she’s not seen since she did something terrible decades back. 
    Emily, her eldest daughter, moved on. She’s got a good job, nice family and a daughter of her own on the cusp of adulthood. Appalled by how her own mother tore the family apart, she could never do the same – or could she? 
    Teresa, the middle child, learnt the hard way that she could only rely on herself – and if she wanted nice things, she’d have to go out and get them, by any means possible. She’s not proud of some of her choices – and it looks like it’s time for her to pay the price. 
    And Shannon, the youngest? No one’s been able to reach her for years. She left home to outrun her pain but some things can never be escaped, only confronted. 
    Will facing the truth set them free – or shatter even more lives? 
    The novel weaves together the sisters life stories into a suspenseful narrative that reads like a series of thrillers. As they grapple with the truth and the potential legal consequences of their actions, the tension mounts, making for a thrilling read. 
    For fans of Kerry Kaya (Revenge), Alex Kane (The Angels), Gillian Godden (The Street), Heather Burnside (Vengeance), and Mandasue Heller (Running Scared).
