When popular mystery writer Sebastian McCabe agreed to take part in
a literary debate in London, he had no clue that he would wind up
as both investigator and suspect in the strangest case of his
amateur sleuthing career. Arthur James Phillimore, investment guru
to the stars and member of an elite Sherlock Holmes society, steps
back into his home to fetch an umbrella one rainy day and is never
seen alive again. The mystery is eerily evocative of one of Dr.
Watson's most famous untold tales, the disappearance of Mr. James
Phillimore. But this Phillimore soon reappears - dead. Jeff Cody
and Lynda Teal, also in London on the second leg of their
honeymoon, get swept up in the bizarre case as well. From the home
gym of a gorgeous movie star (the second Mrs. Phillimore) to the
flying office an airline entrepreneur, they help McCabe chase down
clues all over London. For the journalist Lynda, it's a big story.
For Jeff, it's a big distraction from the joys of married life.
Dogging them along the way is the shadow of Sherlock Holmes, the
one subject that several of the characters have in common. The
great detective is also a figure for whom Lynda - to Jeff's dismay
and consternation - evinces a growing fascination. Humor, romance,
and mystery once again combine in an engaging McCabe-Cody adventure
sure to delight the growing fan base of this series.
