We photograph every item. print proof copy for the Canadian reprint edition. sun fading to cover and spine, some edge wear; When London grows stifling, Mycroft Holmes and his assistant, Sydney Silchester, flee to the English countryside. They rent a charming little house whose sprawling garden boasts a pond, trees, sculptureâand an irresistible mystery. When a dead man is found in the backyard, sitting in the carved throne that forms the gardenâs centerpiece, an antique hairpin buried deep in his chest, the official verdict is suicide. But Mycroft canât imagine a man could stab himself in the heart. Vacation is over before itâs begun; the game is afoot. The death in the garden is only the beginning. This mystery will take Mycroft and Sydney deeper into the underworld of Victorian England than Sherlock Holmes and John Watson ever dared to tread. Unraveling the incident in the backyard will mean understanding more than a simple murder; it will force Mycroft and Silchester to confront the nature of mystery itself. An elegantly constructed golden-age mystery, The Notched Hairpin is a brilliant intellectual investigation of what makes detective stories tick. Author H. F. Heard entrances and amazes fans of Victorian adventures with a mystery-solving duo that can more than hold its own against Sherlock and Watson.
