Summary

New York Times best-selling author James Lovegrove’s continues the story of Sherlock Holmes and The Hound of the Baskervilles, as five years later, another monstrous creature stalks across Dartmoor....

The year 1894. The monstrous Hound of the Baskervilles has been dead for five years, along with its no less monstrous owner, the naturalist Jack Stapleton. Sir Henry Baskerville is living contentedly at Baskerville Hall with his new wife, Audrey, and their three-year-old son, Harry.

Until, that is, Audrey’s lifeless body is found on the moors, drained of blood. It would appear some fiendish creature is once more at large on Dartmoor and has, like its predecessor, targeted the unfortunate Baskerville family.

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are summoned to Sir Henry’s aid, and our heroes must face a marauding beast that is the very stuff of nightmares. It seems that Stapleton may not have perished in the Great Grimpen Mire after all, as Holmes believed, and is hell-bent on revenge....

it starts reminiscent of some of ACDs best stories but Lovegrove finishes with a bit more of a flourish and with some refreshing character additions and viewpoints that we wouldn't have gotten at the time the originals were written . really very good.

similar to the ACD Holmes cannon. I enjoyed this and the others by the author.

I had given up hope ever to read such a compelling true-to-the-original style of narration and composition SH story ever. But here we are, it's as true as if A. Conan Doyle himself had written it. Enjoyed every bit and would highly recommend.

This is an enjoyable story but not as good as some of the others. It is still worth a listen.

.... without whom this book might have been something of a car crash. Not the author's best work, but still an enjoyable listen, especially if you just let it wash over you.

Excellent narrator....
