A triple murder baffles the police, and a bereaved countess turns to Sherlock and Lucy for help.
England, October 1900. When Lord and Lady Adair return to their ancient family home after nearly two decades in Australia, they hope to enjoy their retirement. But all too soon they are discovered lying on the gravel drive outside their home, shot dead. No witnesses are found—yet the police have a theory that would create even more pain for the bereaved family.
Family matriarch Lady Helen Adair fears that her only living grandchild, Lady Hilda, will be accused of the crime. She turns to Sherlock Holmes, the brilliant detective who, six years earlier, captured the murderer of her other grandchild, in the case Dr. Watson recorded as “The Adventure of the Empty House.”
With unexpected twists and turns, The Adair Murders is a thrilling whodunit that will keep you guessing until the very end. Fans of the series will love the new and intriguing family dynamic, while newcomers will find themselves immersed in the world of Victorian London, caught up in the chase for justice.
Can Sherlock, Lucy, Becky, and Flynn solve this inexplicable and unsolvable murder case? Or will murder continue to run in the Adair family?
