There came a ticking of some clock or another. And the sound of a dripping faucet somewhere in the house was like a hammer to an anvil. Our breaths were loud, but my heart sounded louder to me. Interestingly enough, Holmes moved as though he’d been through here before.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTORY TWO: The Mystery of the Faceless Bride.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bride carried no decaying roses but her bridal dress was torn and burnt. Her bare legs, starved needle points, staggered disjointedly. The veil hung low over her face. I had my pistol, however I could not shoot. Her face! Even in the darkness I could see its ruin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTORY THREE: The Case of the Cracked Mirror.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fireman had seen a skeleton, wearing a dress coat, whose head was aflame. I was deeply worried for the missing young woman. If she had been taken by the opera ghost, be he flesh or spirit, how would she fare if she rejected his 'love'?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTORY FOUR: A Strange Affair with the Woman on the Tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJane screeched at this further betrayal and went for Henry. They began to struggle. Henry was the stronger out of the two yet the woman's pain was unstoppable. His hands wrapped around her throat and Jane clawed at his face until she fell. We stared down at Jane's body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTORY FIVE: The Curse of a Native.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdams had violently slapped Kimilu so hard that the sheer force had floored the waiter and the usually humble waiter had lost it. He had stood up and angrily talked back at him in his native language which Adams did not understand. But Butler had lived in Africa for over two decades and he understood every word. It was chilling to say the least.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTORY SIX: The Mystery of the Poisoned Tomb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Ah good morning, John, if we do not hurry then we shall miss the unveiling of the sarcophagus.\" He leaped up, feeling much better than I did, and chased me into my own room so that I could get changed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHolmes and I made our way through. They had been waiting for us. I couldn't wait to see if there really was a Pharaoh in the next room\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTORY SEVEN: The Case of the missing Mayan Codices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"I do not suppose that you have brought your revolver with you Watson?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI shook my head to indicate that my response was in the negative to his question. He turned his head forward again and led us through the kitchen, past several side pantries. As we cautiously inched forward, Holmes observed that the blood trail consisted of droplets of varying size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTORY EIGHT: Murders on the Voyage to India.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMurder; “Murder.” The scream echoed down the hallway shaking me from my slumber and into the dim vision of the electric lights. Someone was banging on the door and Watson scrambled to open it. Her hands were covered with odious red, and tears streaked across her reddened face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTORY NINE: The Heist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Gentlemen, I am here to represent the interest of Henry Bank \u0026amp; Trust. We would like to resolve the situation quickly and quietly. Holmes sat across from her, studying her with a nonplussed air. “I must admit” he said, “that I do not know how to assist you. Inspector Lestrade was here earlier, and it appears that you are missing nothing and they have no thieves in custody.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTORY TEN: Death in the Tropics of an English Explorer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“And I suppose you expect me to solve the whole case on that information alone? Surely there is something more you can give me.” Replied Holmes; quickly losing interest in the subject.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pennie Mae Cartawick","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47075974807792,"sku":"2940152543223","price":1.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940152543223_p0.jpg?v=1764022579","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940152543223","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
