Beschreibung

Giallo - novelette (29 pagine) - The sequel to the canonical story “The Three Students”. 
 
 
 
The sequel to the canonical story, The Three Students. As Holmes and Watson sit at breakfast having solved the case, the wrongdoer they have just identified interrupts them. 
A fourth student, his main rival in the long-jump, is behaving in a very peculiar manner, and is carrying all before him on the sports-field. 
The trail takes Holmes and Watson to a barber’s shop where they acquire a preparation which the barber markets as a performance enhancer. 
But this is by no means the end of a murky trail to discover how to win Olympic gold. 
 
 
 
London businessman, Orlando Pearson is the creator of The Redacted Sherlock Holmes series, which buries forever the idea that Sherlock Holmes might not have been a historical person. 
Do you want to see Sherlock Holmes come to the rescue of Queen Victoria, arrange the borders of post-war Europe, clear Macbeth of murder, unravel King Oedipus’s complexities, or provide advice to the Almighty? Then you will find all this and more in the seven collections of short stories, two novels, and the six plays in the series. 
When not communing with the spirits of 221b, Orlando enjoys sport, music, and browsing price comparison websites. 
He has written Sherlock Holmes stories on all these topics.
Verfügbar seit: 28.11.2023.
Drucklänge: 29 Seiten.

    Everyone has secrets, some deadlier than others. Psychic Ryley St. James's secrets threaten to kill her, and now both the living and the dead are out for blood. 
     
     
     
    There's nothing that Ryley hates worse than her father, but serial killers rank a close second. Alive or dead, they're all the same—they need to be stopped. When a ghostly serial killer torments a young girl, Ryley must put an end to his reign of terror and figure out a way to shove him into the great beyond. 
     
     
     
    But when a fellow psychic turns up dead, and another one suddenly goes missing, Ryley suspects that it's not just the ghostly threats she needs to worry about. There's also a live predator lurking somewhere in the shadows. 
     
     
     
    As she gets closer to the truth, she's forced to confront her own personal demons. Her father's sinister presence is getting dangerously close to her life, the reapers are demanding answers, and the ghostly serial killer wants to add her to his body count. 
     
     
     
    It's not a matter of if she'll die but who will get credit for killing her first. 
     
     
     
    Can she keep it together long enough to battle the secrets from her past and deal with these new killers before it's too late?
