A man is knocked down outside 221B Baker Street. His dying words speak of a man risen from the grave.

A Viscount has gone

...

As snow falls on Baker Street, the wintry city is abuzz with excitement: the Malabar Rose – a fabled & enormous ruby – has been sent as a gift to Queen Victoria by the Marharajah of Marjoudh.

An extraordinary condition is attached: the gem must be displayed at London’s sumptuous Blenheim Hotel. How can the safety of this priceless jewel be assured?

The authorities wisely enlist the help of Sherlock Holmes & his colleague Dr Watson… but fortunately for them, they are also on the receiving end of help from Holmes’s redoubtable housekeeper Mrs Hudson & her able assistant, Flotsam the housemaid.

The Malabar Rose isn’t the only exotic attraction stirring up excitement in the city, however. World famous magician the Great Salmanazar will be amazing the lucky few who can secure tickets at a once-in-a-lifetime spectacular.

Not only that, but the world’s most beautiful woman – the glamorous, if rather risqué, fire dancer Lola Del Fuego – will be joining him on the bill.

At the outbreak of the Second World War Constance Miles was living with her husband in the pretty Surrey village of Shere. A prolific correspondent with a keen interest in current affairs, Constance kept a war journal from 1939 to 1943, recording in vivid detail what life was like for women on the Home Front. She writes of the impact of evacuees, of food shortages & the creative uses of what food there was, & the fears of the local populace, who wonder how they will cope. She tells of refugees from central Europe billeted in village houses &, later in the war, of the influx of American servicemen. She travels frequently to London, mourning the destruction of familiar landmarks & recording the devastation of the Blitz, but still finds time for tea in the Str&. A woman of strong convictions, Mrs Miles is not afraid to voice her opinion on public figures & her worries about the social upheavals she feels certain to follow the war. But most of all her journals record an overlooked aspect of the conflict: the impact on communities outside of major cities, who endured hardships we find hard to imagine today. It is a fascinating document that makes for compulsive reading. ...
