About this listen

From the acclaimed author of Sherlock Holmes and The Christmas Demon comes another beautifully presented seasonal mystery.

The year 1889. The First Terror.

At a boys’ prep school in the Kent marshes, a pupil is found drowned in a pond. Could this be the fulfilment of a witch’s curse from 400 years earlier?

The year 1890. The Second Terror.

A wealthy man dies of a heart attack at his London townhouse. Was he really frightened to death by ghosts?

The year 1894. The Third Terror.

A body is discovered at a Surrey country manor, hideously ravaged. Is the culprit a cannibal, as the evidence suggests?

These three linked crimes test Sherlock Holmes’ deductive powers, and his skepticism about the supernatural, to the limit.

Lovegrove’s Sherlock Holmes novels are never less than a delight. However occasionally fantastical they become, he still manages (against the odds) to embody the style of Conan Doyle like no other. And he does so without seeming to bludgeon the reader into thinking that it’s all been a hard effort to achieve it (unlike many of the Holmes continuation writers…) In other words, he remains his own master - his own voice.
A nod of respect to the wonderful narration. A minor point, but the audible editor might wish to point out pronunciations of places. Rochdale particularly jarred. “Roch” like “Botch”, not Roache like Poach. But amazing voices - his narration kept me riveted.

Excellent all round…

Overall, I enjoyed these stories but the very frequent mispronunciations were extremely irritating and distracting.

Entertaining stories but…..

A perfect facsimile! If someone had told me this was written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle I would’ve believed it. This classic-style Sherlock Holmes’ tale is very much in the style of the originals. A great story that unfolds in three parts and a shared denouement. Thoroughly enjoyed the narrator’s delivery, which added a Victorian integrity to the tail. Recommended for all fans of Sherlock Holmes.

No ship, Sherlock….!

well written and well read as all the others of his I have enjoyed. Though this one is a little bit predictable in the end.

enjoyable
