A Scandal in Nova Alba
Description of the book
Giallo - short story (22 pagine) - The King of Nova Alba approaches Sherlock Holmes with a mystery: who killed his predecessor?
Shakespeare wrote comedies, tragedies and histories. But he never got around to writing a whodunnit and this mixture of the Bard and Baker Street fills the gap in his oeuvre.
The King of Nova Alba approaches Sherlock Holmes. The current king’s predecessor on the Nova Alban throne, King Duncan, came to a violent end and Holmes’s petitioner is the prime suspect.
He wants Sherlock Holmes to find the true killer.
There is many a twist in a familiar tale, before Holmes reveals the utterly unexpected truth.
Orlando Pearson, creator of the well-known Redacted Sherlock Holmes series, commutes into London during the day and communes with the spirits of Baker Street by night.
An international businessman, his interests include classical music, history, literature, current affairs, sport and economics. All these themes find their way into his stories which are being translated into German and Italian.
Mr Pearson is married with two children and lives near Wisteria Lodge.
