After agreeing to take the sensational case of missing eighteen-year-old Ruth Cruger, Grace and her partner, the hard-boiled detective Julius J. Kron, navigated a dangerous web of secret boyfriends, two-faced cops, underground tunnels, rumors of white slavery, and a mysterious pale man, in a desperate race against time.

Her poignant story reveals important clues about missing girls, the media, and the real truth of crime stories. Mrs. Sherlock Holmes is a nominee for the 2018 Edgar Awards for Best Fact Crime.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wealthy businessman Horatio Leavenworth is found dead in his private library with a bullet in his head. Nothing in the house is broken. Nothing is stolen. All signs point to an inside job. But who did it? With the help of the young lawyer, Everett Raymond, Investigator Ebenezer Gryce examines the clues. And there are many. And they are contradictory. A maid has mysteriously disappeared, and one of the two young cousins living with Leavenworth, who, unlike the other, is set to inherit nothing, looks particularly suspicious. But why will she not defend herself? Raymond, falling more and more in love with her, is at a lost. With ‘The Leavenworth Case’ (1878) author Anna Katharine Green introduced the first American series detective, popularizing the concept almost a decade before Arthur Conan Doyle published his stories of Sherlock Holmes. Anna Katharine Green (1846-1935) was an American poet and novelist. She is best known for her novel ‘The Leavenworth Case’ (1878) with which she became one of the first American writers of detective fiction. Agatha Christie cited Green as an influence on her own writing.

In our pursuit of happiness, is it possible we have overlooked some crucial clue? Time to turn your days into a thrilling adventure! The game's afoot. In this age of nano-tech and quantum physics, the thinking of Sherlock Holmes returns to remind us that success in life depends on noticing the tiny details that others do not. "You know my method. It is founded upon the observation of trifles." (Holmes) If you find life puzzling and incomprehensible, who better to help you understand what's going on than Sherlock Holmes? Holmes reminds us that life makes a lot more sense if you know what to look for. Listen to Holmes and you'll know that life isn't random. Holmes has lots of life lessons to offer us. His great career wasn't only down to spotting clues. He was a specialist in deduction, a master of disguise, a genius at setting traps and a prince of daring-do, happy to brave a moor at midnight and face a demon hound. He also knew how to choose his friends, and find the perfect ally in his dear Watson. After all, the great detective unmasked the Sussex Vampire, caught the Creeping Man and destroyed the evil genius Moriarty. Compared to this, shouldn't our worries be a piece of cake? Illustrated with Glenn Dakin's trademark witty cartoons and insightful observations.
