Un nuovo secolo è iniziato, eppure in Baker Street la routine è sempre la stessa. Quando non è occupato a esaminare una scena del crimine collaborando con Scotland Yard o a ricevere qualche cliente in cerca di una consulenza, Sherlock Holmes dedica il tempo libero al violino, alla pipa, alla rubrica giornalistica sulle persone scomparse. Unico evento degno di nota, la morte della regina Vittoria. In vista dei funerali solenni, negli ambienti governativi c'è apprensione per la minaccia costituita da gruppi separatisti. Quale palcoscenico migliore per un atto dimostrativo? Si richiede perciò la presenza rassicurante del grande investigatore alla cerimonia. Tuttavia, mentre l'attenzione generale è concentrata sulle esequie della sovrana, qualcuno ne approfitta per rubare la Pietra dell'Incoronazione, storica lastra sulla quale vengono incoronati i monarchi d'Inghilterra. Holmes è l'unico in grado di recuperarla, in modo che il successore possa salire al trono. Ma per riuscirci dovrà infiltrarsi nelle frange più violente dei nazionalisti irlandesi, a rischio della vita.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEditore: Mondadori\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAuthor: Richard T Ryan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eLunghezza stampa :\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e233 pagine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sherlock Holmes Books by MX Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32129808007283,"sku":"","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1251\/0001\/products\/58-RichardRyan.jpg?v=1608545962"},{"product_id":"sherlock-holmes-il-culto-che-uccide-il-giallo-mondadori-sherlock","title":"Sherlock Holmes.

Soltanto una ragione di straordinaria gravità può dunque aver indotto l'ispettore Lestrade a svegliare bruscamente Sherlock Holmes, poco dopo il sorgere del sole, per condurlo senza indugi sulla scena di un crimine. E in effetti il macabro spettacolo che li attende a Stonehenge, il celebre sito archeologico, giustifica ampiamente una tale urgenza. Sopra una delle pietre millenarie, simile a un altare, giace il corpo senza vita di una giovane donna, uccisa con una coltellata al cuore e poi eviscerata. Il sangue è stato usato per vergare simboli arcani su parti del cadavere, gli organi interni disposti tutt'intorno. Manifestazioni di una malvagità raramente incontrata da Holmes durante la sua carriera. L'omicidio è stato commesso nell'equinozio di primavera, il che suggerisce l'ipotesi quasi inconcepibile di un sacrificio umano. Indagare sugli aberranti rituali di una setta assassina sembra perciò con ogni evidenza la linea investigativa da privilegiare. Ma per il grande segugio la pista da seguire non è mai la più ovvia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEditore: Mondadori\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAuthor: Richard T Ryan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eLunghezza stampa :\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e218 pagine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sherlock Holmes Books by MX Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32129933148275,"sku":"","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1251\/0001\/products\/70-RichardRyan.jpg?v=1608545962"},{"product_id":"three-may-keep-a-secret-a-sherlock-holmes-adventure","title":"Three May Keep A Secret - A Sherlock Holmes Adventure - Paperback","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYour Other Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3D0bzxF\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAmazon USA\u003c\/a\u003e      \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/318Sr3g\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKindle\u003c\/a\u003e     \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Three-May-Keep-Secret-Adventure\/dp\/B0B6RQ6PSL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eAudio\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout This Book:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhen a meeting with a client goes disastrously wrong, Sherlock Holmes soon finds himself involved in a case of murder with two dead bodies and too few clues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFrom some clear pieces of glass and a raven’s feather, the Great Detective must divine exactly who the client was and what prompted him to seek assistance at 221B.

Over the past few weeks, someone has been paying nocturnal visits to the gallery and apparently spending a great deal of time in one of the rooms devoted to medieval arms and armour. Although nothing appears to have been taken, the curator wants to know who is visting after hours and why.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Holmes inspects the room, he makes a startling discovery that sets in motion a chain of events which ends up pitting Holmes against a modern day Templar. As he follows the clues, he finds himself exploring an underground storeroom that dates from the Middle Ages and traveling to Cornwall to examine the vestiges of buildings erected by the Templars centuries earlier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll the while, he is being shadowed by an adversary who seems at least equal to Holmes – if not one step ahead. It’s a cat-and-mouse game that can have only one winner; unfortunately, no one – not even Holmes – knows what the prize is.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Digital PDF\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso available in paperback and hardcover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Sherlock Holmes Books by MX Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42265184829555,"sku":"templardigital","price":5.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1251\/0001\/files\/9781804245033large.jpg?v=1721507421"},{"product_id":"the-other-woman-a-sherlock-holmes-adventure-paperback","title":"The Other Woman - A Sherlock Holmes Adventure - Paperback","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eYour Other Options:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Other-Woman-Sherlock-Holmes-Adventure\/dp\/1804247243\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAmazon USA\u003c\/a\u003e       \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/the-other-woman-richard-t-ryan\/1147988747?ean=9781804247242\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBarnes and Noble\u003c\/a\u003e     \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/p\/books\/the-other-woman-a-sherlock-holmes-adventure\/30a3acb5f3e983ab?ean=9781804247242\u0026amp;next=t\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBookshop.org\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Other-Woman-Richard-T-Ryan-ebook\/dp\/B0FNQSNCC8\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKindle USA\u003c\/a\u003e    \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Other-Woman-Richard-T-Ryan-ebook\/dp\/B0FNQSNCC8\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAmazon UK\u003c\/a\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAfter a mysterious woman arranges an appointment at Baker Street, Sherlock Holmes finds himself thrust into an inquiry with far-reaching implications.

After learning from the pontiff that several priceless cameos that could prove compromising to the church, and perhaps determine the future of the newly unified Italy, have been stolen, Holmes is asked to recover them. In a parallel story, Michelangelo, the toast of Rome in 1501 after the unveiling of his Pieta, is commissioned by Pope Alexander VI, the last of the Borgia pontiffs, with creating the cameos that will bedevil Holmes and the papacy four centuries later.
