King....\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Kate Martinelli has seen her share of peculiar things as a San Francisco cop, but never anything quite like this: an ornate Victorian sitting room straight out of a Sherlock Holmes story-complete with violin, tobacco-filled Persian slipper, and gunshots in the wallpaper that spell out the initials of the late queen.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Philip Gilbert was a true Holmes fanatic, from his antiquated décor to his vintage wardrobe. And no mere fan of fiction's great detective, but a leading expert with a collection of priceless memorabilia-a collection some would kill for.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e And perhaps someone did: In his collection is a century-old manuscript purportedly written by Holmes himself-a manuscript that eerily echoes details of Gilbert's own murder.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Now, with the help of her partner, Al Hawkin, Kate must follow the convoluted trail of a killer-one who may have trained at the feet of the greatest mind of all times.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53673633710353,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780553588330.jpg?v=1781527293","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-the-art-of-detection-by-laurie-r-king","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
