Justice Hall

About the book

Hours after Holmes and Russell return from solving the enigmatic puzzle of The Moor, a bloodied stranger who seems oddly familiar desperately pounds on their front door, begging for their assistance. Once he regains his strength, he reveals the tale of Marsh Hughenfort, the younger brother of the late Duke of Beauville, who has returned to England to uncover the truth behind the suspicious death of the heir to the estate. He believes that only Holmes and Russell can unravel this mystery.

The story dates back to the Great War of 1918, when Gabriel Hughenfort, the Duke's son, passed away under scandalous circumstances that have plagued the family for years. While Holmes delves into Gabriel's war history in London, Russell becomes involved in a doomed shooting party. A missing diary, stolen letters, and a series of ominous clues form a complex puzzle that will require Holmes's astute disguises and Russell's bold explorations into unfamiliar territories, spanning from an English village to Paris and the untamed prairies of America.

The stage is set, the game begins, but can they apprehend a cunning murderer before they themselves fall prey to his deadly scheme?
