A Sherlock Holmes Novel by Mark Collins
Book DescriptionWhen a sealed iron coffin arrives in London-its occupant not the man it should be-Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are drawn into one of the most chilling enigmas of their career.
The late Sir Alaric Mortimer, an eccentric inventor and industrial magnate, is reported dead in France. His body, encased in a coffin of his own design, is returned to England for burial. But upon its opening, a ghastly discovery is made: the corpse inside is that of a stranger.
From the echoing halls of Mortimer's House of Iron to the fog-shrouded streets of Victorian London, Holmes and Watson pursue a trail of deception that leads them deep into the world of experimental machinery, forbidden science, and the terrifying possibility that death itself may not end a man's ambitions.
When strange electrical disturbances ripple through the city and whispers travel the telegraph wires, Holmes faces an adversary unlike any he has ever known-an intellect that refuses to perish, and a will bound in metal and current.
Can reason overcome the restless spark of madness? Or will London fall beneath the shadow of the Iron Coffin?
A full-length Sherlock Holmes novel written in the classic style of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, The Adventure of the Iron Coffin blends atmospheric mystery, gothic science, and the timeless brilliance of the world's greatest detective.
