Description

When Sherlock Holmes is invited to a criminology conference in Germany, he immediately becomes embroiled in a dangerous adventure. One of Munich University’s most notorious scholars was Victor Frankenstein. Now someone is attempting to breath new life into Frankenstein’s old experiments, and only Holmes has the deductive powers to uncover the secret behind Munich’s monstrous menace.

Alongside this original Frankenstein-inspired adventure are tales in which Holmes revisits the home of Dr. Jekyll when another spate of violent crimes echoes Mr. Hyde’s past misdemeanours, an adventure on the island of H.G. Wells’ Dr. Moreau, and a mystery involving P.T. Barnham’s purchase of the enormous elephant, Jumbo, from London Zoo.

Featuring four previously published tales and three brand new adventures, this is a Holmes collection quite unlike any other!
