Publisher's Synopsis
Based on the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and H.G. Wells.
Sherlock Holmes is called out of retirement to London in 1908 to solve a most baffling mystery: The British Museum is missing a perfect specimen of a Martian from the failed invasion of 1899. Did it walk away of its own accord or did someone steal it and if so, why? Holmes ponders the facts and remembers his part in the war effort alongside Professor Challenger during the War of the Worlds invasion which were chronicled in H.G. Wells' classic novel. Meanwhile, Doctor Watson has problems of his own when his wife, Jacqueline, steals a scalpel from his surgical tool kit and returns to her old stomping grounds of Whitechapel, the London area of the infamous unsolved murders of Jack The Ripper! "Doug Murray and Topper Helmers bring us a ripping yarn combining some of the most beloved characters to ever come out of turn-of-the-century London." - AtomicAvenue.com
