The Adventure of the Engineer's Mom: A New Sherlock Holmes Mystery
by Craig Stephen Copland
THE ADVENTURE OF THE ENGINEER'S MOM.
AN ADVENTURESS WOMAN IS KIDNAPPED AND WILL BE MURDERED IF HER BRILLIANT SON DOES NOT BETRAY HIS COUNTRY. A brilliant young Cambridge University engineer is carrying out secret research for the Admiralty. It will lead to the building of the world’s most powerful battleship, The Dreadnaught.
His adventuress mother is kidnapped and having been spurned by Scotland Yard he seeks the help of Sherlock Holmes.
Was she taken by German spies, or an underhanded student, or by someone else?
Another student, brilliant but lazy and not known to be honest, claims he knows the truth. And he ends up dead. Whoever it was is prepared to commit cold-blooded murder to get hold of the secret plans.
Holmes, with the help of Watson, investigate. They have help from an unexpected source – the engineer’s mom herself.
This new mystery is inspired by the original Sherlock Holmes story, The Adventure of the Engineer’s Thumb. It is set in the same era in England and you will encounter several of the original characters, but now in a completely new traditional Sherlock Holmes mystery.
Are you a fan of pre-World War I English history? And a fan of Sherlock Holmes? Then you will get a kick out of this who-done-it story.
