A languid summer in France turns chilling when Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson answer Mrs. H. GibsonÕs plea at the forbidding Chateau Verlon-sur-Rhone. Here, every torch flickers on empty corridors and frantic servants swear the halls echo with vengeful spirits. Determined to unmask superstition, Holmes and Watson find themselves drawn into a darker reality: a grisly murder amid crumbling tapestries and shadowy towers. As whispers of otherworldly forces swirl, the great detective must sift phantom sightings from flesh-and-blood threatsÑbefore the next victim falls, and the echoing footsteps in the night claim him and his loyal companion., sherlock holmes, sir arthur conan doyle, doctor watson, classic fiction, basil rathbone, mystery, Bret M.
