Book excerpt: Everyone’s favorite detective finds himself embroiled in two related investigations—one with a connection to a giant rat—in this clever Sherlock Holmes pastiche In deference to Sherlock Holmes’ wishes, Dr. Watson kept the details of “The Giant Rat of Sumatra” a secret. However, before he died, he arranged that the bizarre story of the giant rat should be held in the vaults of a London bank until all the protagonists were dead . . . At long last, discover the tale “for which the world is not yet prepared”—a thrilling mystery involving murder, adventure, and a frightening rodent aboard Matilda Briggs. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s timeless creation returns in this handsomely designed detective story that finally brings to life a tale first mentioned in the 1924 story, “The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire”. The Further Adventures series encapsulates the most varied and thrilling cases of the worlds’ greatest detective.
