Step into the dazzling yet deadly world of the 1893 Chicago World's Columbian Exposition in Sherlock Holmes and the White City. When the world's greatest consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes, and his trusted companion, Dr. John Watson, cross the Atlantic in pursuit of a fugitive named Thomas Jones-whom they suspect to be the notorious Jack the Ripper-they stumble into a far more sinister web of evil. In the shadow of the spectacular, electrified "White City," the duo encounters a charming but lethal physician: Dr. H. H. Holmes. Operating from his labyrinthine "Murder Castle"-a horrific building filled with hidden passages, secret rooms, and a basement kiln-H. H. Holmes is silently preying upon unsuspecting visitors drawn to the Fair. As Sherlock Holmes matches wits with America's most cunning serial killer, the investigation spirals from the bustling Midway Plaisance of Chicago to the gas-lit streets of Boston. Intertwining meticulous detective work with real American history, this novel features appearances by historical luminaries like architect Daniel Burnham, Mayor Carter Harrison, and Bertha Palmer. This thrilling pastiche pits the deductive genius of Sherlock Holmes against the sheer, calculated malice of H. H. Holmes. Only one will outwit the other. A must-read for fans of historical thrillers, Arthur Conan Doyle, and true-crime-inspired fiction.
