Non c'è pace per lady Georgiana Rannoch. Di sangue reale, fa parte della linea di successione al trono, al quale tuttavia non potrà mai nemmeno avvicinarsi, essendo la trentacinquesima della lista. È inoltre afflitta da una cronica mancanza di fondi, che la costringe a presentarsi a Buckingham Palace per un tè in abiti non degni del suo rango e per giunta in taxi. Come se non bastasse, fra una tazza di Assam e un biscotto, la regina le affida un incarico a dir poco delicato. Sua Maestà non approva la relazione del figlio, il principe di Galles, con una ben nota donna americana, il cui nome sarebbe disdicevole menzionare, la quale ha non solo un divorzio alle spalle, ma anche un secondo marito. Il timore è che i due, attesi a una festa in una villa sul Lago Maggiore, progettino in quell'occasione di annunciare il nuovo divorzio di lei per poi sposarsi segretamente. Georgie dovrà partecipare al trattenimento per scoprire se davvero si prepari una cerimonia nuziale clandestina. L'aspetta insomma, salvo qualche imbarazzo, un riposante soggiorno in una località incantevole. Ma un delitto manderà tutto all'aria. E la povera lady, partita per tenere d'occhio una coppia di amanti, si ritroverà a dare la caccia a un assassino.

"Nothing is simple when you're thirty-fifth in line for the British crown, least of all marriage. But with love on their side, and plans to elope, Lady Georgiana Rannoch and her beau Darcy O'Mara hope to bypass a few royal rules ... With Darcy driving me out of London in a borrowed motor car, I soon discover that he isn't planning to introduce me to the pleasures of sinning in secret--as I had hoped--but to make me his wife! Of course, there are some quibbles to be dealt with, such as my needing special permission from the King to marry a Roman Catholic and the question of where we might live after the honeymoon. Though he will inherit a title, Darcy is as broke as I am. Even his family's Irish castle has been sold to a rich American who now employes Darcy's father as a hired hand. Throwing these cares to the wind, nothing could deter us from our mission--except perhaps the news that my future father-in-law has just been arrested. It seems the rich American was murdered and Darcy's father had more than enough motive to do the deed. With the elopement postponed, we head for Ireland where he insists he's innocent, and it's up to us to prove it--for better or worse"--

A bordo del piroscafo Servia diretto a San Pietroburgo viaggia il dottor Joseph Bell, chirurgo di fama dell'Università di Edimburgo. Lo affiancano per una serie di conferenze nella capitale dell'Impero russo due giovani assistenti, Arthur Conan Doyle e Sherlock Holmes. Già durante la navigazione appare tuttavia chiaro che gli scopi scientifici della loro trasferta passeranno in secondo piano. L'omicidio di un inviato speciale di Sua Maestà, trovato senza vita nella sua cabina, li trascina infatti in un vortice di intrighi politici che hanno come vittima designata lo zar Alessandro III. Si teme che un ufficiale britannico, sopravvissuto alle torture dei russi in Afghanistan, pianifichi di assassinarlo per vendetta. Ma dietro le quinte si muovono anche forze interessate a minare i già precari equilibri tra le nazioni. Se un complotto dovesse avere successo, il rischio di una guerra catastrofica sarebbe altissimo. A Sherlock Holmes e ai suoi compagni si impone dunque di affrontare un'insidiosa partita a scacchi la cui posta in gioco è il destino dell'Europa.

È un tiepido mattino d'autunno quando Sherlock Holmes e il dottor Watson scendono da una carrozza della polizia davanti a una casa signorile di Marylebone. Convocati dall'ispettore Lestrade sulla scena di un delitto alquanto fuori dell'ordinario, i due varcano la soglia di uno studio con librerie di mogano alle pareti e una finestra incorniciata da tende di velluto verde. A terra, dietro una pesante scrivania di quercia, si scorge il cadavere di un uomo. La vittima, il chirurgo Horace Simpson, giace sulla schiena con mani e piedi legati insieme strettamente. Ma il dettaglio più scioccante è che la testa appare completamente ricoperta di sabbia. Una sabbia fine, chiara, che di certo non proviene dalla zona di Londra. Emerge così dalle ipotesi investigative una pista che conduce a un luogo lontano, indietro nel tempo. In una tomba egizia della Valle dei Maghi, un cimitero dei sacerdoti del dio Ra nei pressi del Cairo, è stata rinvenuta un'iscrizione le cui parole terrificanti contro i profanatori risuonano ora, dopo millenni, nel cuore dell'Impero britannico. Spetterà a Holmes, irremovibile nel respingere qualsiasi spiegazione irrazionale, impedire che l'antico anatema reclami il suo tributo di sangue.

Un residuo di cenere ha ben poco di interessante per i comuni mortali. A Sherlock Holmes, autore di una nota monografia sull'argomento, rivela invece più di un dettaglio su un certo fumatore di sigari. Lo stesso potrebbe dirsi di un leggero strato di fuliggine depositatosi su un cappello, indizio sicuro della frequentazione di una specifica tratta ferroviaria. Sono questi segni e altri ancora, fino alle iniziali incise su un orologio d'oro, a formare quel linguaggio segreto delle cose che solo Holmes è in grado di leggere e che rimane invisibile a chi si sottopone al suo occhio scrutatore. Come il magnate dell'industria del tabacco in cerca d'aiuto al 221B di Baker Street: vittima di una strana persecuzione, il nuovo cliente teme per la propria vita, ma forse non dice la verità fino in fondo. Ingenuo, se pensa che qualcosa possa sfuggire al grande investigatore, e anche molto imprudente. Il caso promette di finire male, e non è che il primo di una serie - tra l'enigma di un oscuro manoscritto in greco antico e il furto di un inestimabile mandolino veneziano - capace di mettere a dura prova le pur eccezionali facoltà di Holmes. Chiamato a risolvere una volta per sempre il mistero dell'Empia Trinità.

'Perfect if you loved THE THURSDAY MURDER CLUB' - reader review 'An entertaining romp and a fascinating insight into the weird and wonderful ways of the British aristocracy' S.J. Bennett, author of The Windsor Knot It's the 1930s and a mysterious illness is spreading over Scotland. But the noble and ancient family of Inverkillen, residents of Loch Down Abbey, are much more concerned with dwindling toilet roll supplies and who will look after the children now that Nanny has regretfully (and most inconveniently) departed this life. Then Lord Inverkillen, Earl and head of the family, is found dead in mysterious circumstances. The inspector declares it an accident but Mrs MacBain, the head housekeeper, isn't so convinced. As no one is allowed in or out because of the illness, the residents of the house - both upstairs and downstairs - are the only suspects. With the Earl's own family too busy doing what can only be described as nothing, she decides to do some digging - in between chores, of course - and in doing so uncovers a whole host of long-hidden secrets, lies and betrayals that will alter the dynamics of the household for ever.

Georgie and Darcy are finally on their honeymoon in Kenya's Happy Valley, but murder crashes the party in this all-new installment in the New York Times bestselling series. I was so excited when Darcy announced out of the blue that we were flying to Kenya for our extended honeymoon. Now that we are here, I suspect he has actually been sent to fulfill another secret mission. I am trying very hard not to pick a fight about it, because after all, we are in paradise! Darcy finally confides that there have been robberies in London and Paris. It seems the thief was a member of the aristocracy and may have fled to Kenya. Since we are staying in the Happy Valley-the center of upper-class English life-we are well positioned to hunt for clues and ferret out possible suspects. Now that I am a sophisticated married woman, I am doing my best to sound like one. But crikey! These aristocrats are a thoroughly loathsome sort enjoying a completely decadent lifestyle filled with wild parties and rampant infidelity. And one of the leading lights in the community, Lord Cheriton, has the nerve to make a play for me. While I am on my honeymoon! Of course, I put an end to that right off. When he is found bloodied and lifeless along a lonely stretch of road, it appears he fell victim to a lion. But it seems that the Happy Valley community wants to close the case a bit too quickly. Darcy and I soon discover that there is much more than a simple robbery and an animal attack to contend with here in Kenya. Nearly everyone has a motive to want Lord Cheriton dead and some will go to great lengths to silence anyone who asks too many questions. The hunt is on! I just hope I can survive my honeymoon long enough to catch a killer. . . .

Lady Georgiana Rannoch is just back from her honeymoon with dashing Darcy O'Mara when a friend in need pulls her into a twisted Gothic tale of betrayal, deception and, most definitely, murder. . . . I am a bit at loose ends at the moment. My cook, Queenie, is making my new role as mistress of Eynsleigh something akin to constant torture as Darcy is off on another one of his top secret jaunts. And Grandad is busy helping wayward youths avoid lives of crime. So when my dearest friend, Belinda, inherits an old cottage in Cornwall and begs me to go with her to inspect the property, I jump at the chance. After a heart-stopping journey in Belinda's beast of a motorcar, we arrive at the creaky old cottage called White Sails and quickly realize that it is completely uninhabitable. Just when I'm starting to wonder if I would have been better off trying to get Queenie to cook a roast that hasn't been burnt beyond all recognition, we meet Rose Summers, a woman Belinda knew as a child when she spent time in Cornwall. Rose invites us to stay at Trewoma Hall, the lovely estate now owned by her husband, Tony. Belinda confesses that she never liked Rose and had a fling with Tony years ago, so staying with them is far from ideal but beggars can't be choosers as they say. Trewoma is not the idyllic house Belinda remembers. There's something claustrophobic and foreboding about the place. Matters aren't helped by the oppressively efficient housekeeper Mrs. Mannering or by the fact that Tony seems to want to rekindle whatever he and Belinda once had right under his wife's nose. Our increasingly awkward visit soon turns deadly when a member of the household is found murdered and all clues point to Belinda as the prime suspect. I soon learn that some long buried secrets have come back to haunt those in residence at Trewoma Hall and I'll need to sift through the ruins of their past so Belinda doesn't lose her chance at freedom in the present. . . .
