Description
May 1898. A new client arrives at Baker Street – Abigail Moone, a wealthy, independent writer of successful mystery stories under a male pseudonym. She presents an unusual problem. Abigail claims that she devised a man's death that was reported in that morning's newspaper: that is, she planned his murder as an event to be included in one of her mystery stories.
Following real people and imagining how she might murder them and get away with it is how Abigail comes up with her plots, but this 'victim' has actually died, apparently of the poison method she meticulously planned in her notebook. Someone is trying to frame Abigail for his death, but with the evidence stacking up against her, she turns to Holmes to prove her innocence.
The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - The Back-To-Front Murder by Tim Major is an intriguing tale of mystery and suspense where Sherlock Holmes must discern fact from fiction to clear the name of the wrongly accused.
