Sinopse

In the third instalment of the K-Twelve Legacy Series, a new political landscape has emerged from the dust left by the Great War. However, old wounds still served to fuel hatred and a new, more dangerous foe has arisen from the ashes - The Nazis.
New organisations are formed to combat this new threat but the old guard, in the form of the Office of Special Projects, are still there. Colonel John Forrester is at a crossroads, his most trusted operative, Jonathan Fallon, has retired, leaving the K-12 post vacant. Many have come forward and many have fallen.
It is March 1942. Deep in occupied France, an agent for the Special Operations Executive is on the run for his life. He has vital information about the goings on at a nearby chateau and must inform his superiors back in Britain. He manages to get his hands on a radio set and begins to transmit, but is killed before he could finish.
What has startled this agent so much to make him break his cover and give his life to pass this information on? John Forrester and the OSP are tasked with finding the answer, but who can he assign to the mission? A new breed of man steps forward, somehow different but also the same. His name... FALLON

    "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.

    Charcuterie chef Katie Aubrey is overjoyed when asked to create charcuterie boards for the summer fashion show at the prestigious Hidden Boulders Community in Cave Creek. However, the challenge for Katie isn't designing the complex cured meat and cheese platters but rather, how to deal with Edith Ellory, the annoying food critic ghost who pesters her while she works. Lamentably, that becomes the least of her worries when the fashion show coordinator is found dead in the food pavilion clutching a handful of Katie's pancetta rosettes. 
     
     
     
    Toxicology reports indicate food poisoning, and Katie's charcuterie shop immediately falls under suspicion, even though none of the other meats showed any hint of foul play. 
     
     
     
    To make matters worse, the victim had a long and unpleasant history with one of Katie's employees. To save the shop's reputation and vindicate her employee, Katie needs to ditch her white apron and don some decent walking shoes before she becomes the next victim.

    Was the marriage between Aidan and Dinah as perfect as it appeared to be? Was Dinah’s death really a tragic accident? 
    When it finally comes, the truth is more shocking than Hester could ever have imagined. And she knows that if revealed, it will destroy the family she has grown to love and ruin Aidan's Hollywood dream forever...
