Sherlock Holmes and The Three Winter Terrors
Sherlock Holmes and The Three Winter Terrors | James Lovegrove
3 posts | 3 read
A beautifully presented sinister seasonal mystery from the acclaimed author of Sherlock Holmes & The Christmas Demon. 1889. The First Terror. At a boys prep school in the Kent marshes, a pupil is found drowned in a pond. Could this be the fulfilment of a witchs curse from over two hundred years earlier? 1890. The Second Terror. A wealthy man dies of a heart attack at his London townhouse. Was he really frightened to death by ghosts? 1894. The Third Terror. A body is discovered in the dark woods near a Surrey country manor, hideously ravaged. Is the culprit a cannibal, as the evidence suggests? These three chilling and strangely linked crimes test Sherlock Holmess deductive powers, and his scepticism about the supernatural, to the limit.

I think I need more Watson and Holmes.

Three stories, seemingly unconnected.

Using this for the #Booked2023 prompt: About a Pandemic - Watson refers to the Spanish Flu several times, because these stories were written down after he recovered from the flu. The stories themselves take place before the Spanish Flu though. (is that sufficient for the prompt?)

Mehso-so

Since I already posted the dust cover, here's the inner cover, which is also quite beautiful. Too bad the stories inside don't measure up. The author gets Holmes just about right (Sherlock Holmes is easy to write, hard to write well), but the cases themselves are unengaging and easy to solve (and I say this as someone who has trouble with Encyclopedia Brown mysteries). Pretty disappointed with this one.

Not sure why, but I find this to be one of the most aesthetically pleasing books I have ever owned.
