Publisher's Synopsis
Holmes is back and...the game is still afoot! The year is 1899 and Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson are at home at 221B Baker Street as London endures its coldest winter in memory. Then comes a telegram from Sir Henry Baskerville, Baronet, filled with fearful premonitions and a supposed sighting of the ghost of Jack Stapleton, the evil mastermind behind "The Hound of the Baskervilles", upon the moor. This is followed immediately by reports declaring the death of the Devonshire Baronet in a "tragic accident". Were Sir Henry's words to Holmes and Watson mere hysteria? Was the tragic accident really a brutal murder? Had Jack Stapleton, that devil of Dartmoor, truly returned from his grave in the Great Grimpen Mire?
Only Sherlock Holmes can help and soon he is upon the bitterly cold, windswept moor, the human bloodhound on the trail for truth again. In J. B. Varney's "Resurgent Mysteries" the game is afoot and Holmes and Watson will soon find themselves in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with an evil madman. Mr. Varney, himself a descendant of the Baskerville Line, offers the reader the first breathtaking adventure of his Resurgent Mystery Series. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are back in all their Victorian glory. Enjoy!
