The Sign of Four
Book 2 of the Sherlock Holmes series
Mary Morstan asks Holmes and Watson to investigate pearls sent anonymously after her father's disappearance. A promised meeting draws them into a case involving a stolen Indian treasure, a secret pact, and a locked-room death. The pursuit moves from London interiors to a nighttime chase along the Thames. Adventurous and atmospheric, this mystery suits readers who enjoy hidden treasure, imperial secrets, river chases, and the developing friendship between Holmes, Watson, and the woman Watson comes to love.
