The Baker Street Phantom by Fabrice Bourland

Gallic Books brings us yet another hugely entertaining novel of mystery by a French author this time set in London. Well translated by Morag Young, Fabrice Bourland tells the story of two young Canadians who arrive in London and set up a detective agency. The first client to engage the services of the cerebral Singleton and the more physical Trelawney is non other than Lady Conan Doyle, widow of the creator of Sherlock Holmes, with an intriguing tale of premonitions, poltergeists and very real murders. Bourland conjures a fascinating tale of spirits brought into existance by the thoughts of the public who have read about them
