Fully revised 2nd edition - The Investigating Arthur Conan Doyle and
Sherlock Holmes Colloquium and donation of the third largest private
collection of Sherlockiana in the world were supposed to produce a
weekend of great publicity for tiny St. Benignus college in Erin, Ohio.
But when theft and murder come to campus, college public relations
director Jeff Cody finds himself knee-deep in Sherlockian suspects,
besieged by an aggressive reporter he loves but no longer dates, and
competing with his eccentric brother-in-law, Sebastian McCabe, to solve
the crimes first. The mess worsens when Jeff and his ex-girlfriend,
Lynda Teal, themselves fall under suspicion of murder - and with good
reason, for they have something to hide. This satirical romp takes
Sherlock Holmes seriously, but not Holmesians. A witty and engaging
spoof sure to delight not only the deerstalker set but mystery fans in
general.
