Gemma Doyle won't be spooked when a body shows up at the psychic fair
in bestselling author Vicki Delany's ninth Sherlock Holmes Bookshop
mystery.
When a psychic fair arrives in West London, Gemma Doyle, owner of the
Sherlock Holmes Bookshop and Emporium, wants nothing to do with it. But
somehow, at the urging of Donald Morris, an enthusiastic Sherlockian,
she finds herself talked into attending a séance, along with baker and
best friend Jayne Wilson, store assistant, Ashleigh, and former pop star
Bunny Leigh.
But to her surprise, Gemma finds herself banned from the séance and
shown the door. Curious, she listens in from outside the room. The
medium informs a disappointed Donald that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle will
not be able to make it tonight. Then, Gemma hears a voice cut off, a cry
for help, a scream. Gemma bursts into the library to see that someone
has collapsed on the table--dead. The windows are all locked, and Gemma
was guarding the only door. Someone in this room is a murderer. But who?
The game is once again afoot for Gemma Doyle, as she hunts a killer.
But, this time, is the killer of flesh and blood or had the medium
summoned doom from beyond the veil?
