The new Sherlock Holmes novel from the New York Times bestselling
author of The Age of Odin. It is 1890, and in the days before
Christmas Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson are visited at Baker
Street by a new client. Eve Allerthorpe - eldest daughter of a
grand but somewhat eccentric Yorkshire-based dynasty - is greatly
distressed, as she believes she is being haunted by a demonic
Christmas spirit. Her late mother told her terrifying tales of the
sinister Black Thurrick, and Eve is sure that she has seen the
creature from her bedroom window. What is more, she has begun to
receive mysterious parcels of birch twigs, the Black Thurrick's
calling card... Eve stands to inherit a fortune if she is sound in
mind, but it seems that something - or someone - is threatening her
sanity. Holmes and Watson travel to the Allerthorpe family seat at
Fellscar Keep to investigate, but soon discover that there is more
to the case than at first appeared. There is another spirit
haunting the family, and when a member of the household is found
dead, the companions realise that no one is beyond suspicion.
