HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved,
essential classics.
'Sherlock Holmes was transformed when he was hot upon such a
scent as this. Men who had only known the quiet thinker and
logician of Baker Street would have failed to recognize him. His
face flushed and darkened. His brows were drawn into two hard black
lines, while his eyes shone out from beneath them with a steely
glitter.'
Set against the foggy, mysterious backdrops of London and the
English countryside, these are the first twelve stories ever
published to feature the infamous Detective Sherlock Holmes and his
side kick Doctor Watson. They first appeared as stories in the
Strand Magazine and feature some of his most famous and enjoyable
cases, including 'A Scandal in Bohemia', 'The Adventure of the Blue
Carbuncle' and 'The Red-headed League'.

Taiki and Chinatsu go on a secret date to the fireworks festival, but their romantic time together is cut short when they run into other Eimei students.

Virginia Woolf’s classic modernist novel, To the Lighthouse, draws from her own life and experiences.
Hailed as one of the greatest works of modernist fiction, Virginia Woolf’s semi-autobiographical novel about the Ramsay family explores the themes of perspective, interpersonal relationships, and the complexity of human experience. Woolf’s use of shifting points of view in the narrative highlights how each person sees and experiences events in their own way.
As conflict and grief impact the Ramsays throughout their time on Scotland’s Isle of Skye, the reader is pulled into Woolf’s own life.
Two dead bodies and a Christmas stocking weaponised. A Postman
murdered delivering cards on Christmas morning. A Christmas tree
growing over a forgotten homicide. It's the most wonderful time of
the year, except for the victims of these shocking and often
elaborate murders. When there's magic in the air, sometimes even
the facts don't quite add up and the impossible can happen -- and
it's up to the detective's trained eye to unwrap the clues and put
together an explanation neatly tied up with a bow. Martin Edwards
compiles an anthology filled with tales of seasonal suspense where
the snow runs red, perfect to be shared between super-sleuths by
the fire on a cold winter's night.
From bestselling gothic horror author Darcy Coates comes a chilling
story of a quiet house on a forgotten suburban lane that hides a
deadly secret... Leigh Harker's quiet suburban home was her
sanctuary for more than a decade, until things abruptly changed.
Curtains open by themselves. Radios turn off and on. And a dark
figure looms in the shadows of her bedroom door at night, watching
her, waiting for her to finally let down her guard enough to fall
asleep. Pushed to her limits but unwilling to abandon her home,
Leigh struggles to find answers. But each step forces her towards
something more terrifying than she ever imagined. A poisonous
shadow seeps from the locked door beneath the stairs. The handle
rattles through the night and fingernails scratch at the wood. Her
home harbours dangerous secrets, and now that Leigh is trapped
within its walls, she fears she may never escape. Do you think
you're safe? You're wrong. Also By Darcy Coates: The Haunting of
Ashburn House The Haunting of Blackwood House Craven Manor The
House Next Door Voices in the Snow The Whispering Dead
