The Adventure of the Creeping...

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

"The Adventure of the Creeping Man" (1923) is one of 12 Sherlock Holmes short stories (56 total) by Arthur Conan Doyle in The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes first published in Strand Magazine October 1921 - April 1927.
A man named Trevor Bennett comes to Holmes with a most unusual problem. He is Professor Presbury's personal secretary, and Mr. Bennett is also engaged to the professor's only daughter, Edith. Professor Presbury is himself engaged to a young lady, Alice Morphy, a colleague's daughter, although he himself is already 61 years of age. Their impending marriage does not seem to have caused a great scandal, so that is not Mr Bennett's problem. Nonetheless, the trouble seems to have begun at about the time of Professor Presbury's and Alice's engagement. First, the professor suddenly left home for a fortnight without telling anyone where he was going. He returned looking rather travel-worn, and it was only through a letter from a friend sent to Mr Bennett that the family learnt that Professor Presbury had been to Prague.

Dear Jack: Love Letters from...

Jyll Steen

She calls herself his wife. She kills to prove it.  
"Jyll and Jack went up the hill… and only Jyll came back."  
It’s been six years since Jack Steen walked away from Jyll Steen—the woman who believes she is his secret wife, the daughter of a killer, and now a killer herself. But Jyll never forgot.   
Not the Vegas weekend. Not the rejection. And not the secrets Jack carries in his midnight recordings.  
In her first letter, Jyll whispers her devotion in rhyme before confessing her latest crime: the abduction and unraveling of a man who reminded her just a little too much of Jack.   
Every detail is for him—every cut, every lie, every breath.  
Dear Jack: Love Letters from Your Serial Killer Wife begins here—with a vow written in blood, a souvenir meant just for him, and a chilling reminder that Jyll isn’t done. Not by a long shot.

Off-season Mt. Munsee Lodge is a mountain-top hotel which is perfect for relaxing and having fun. But Ivy brings Johnny, her new man, who turns out to be on the run.

Out for a walk the next day, Jane finds her old friend Ivy on the snowy trail—dead. Ivy has been stabbed with an ice pick. Johnny's the likeliest suspect, but he's vanished. The killer is someone who knows a lot more about murder than writing.

Writing can be murder, every writer knows that! Before this killer strikes again, Jane and Winky must find the one who may not know much about plot structure, but sure knows murder—cold.
