Sherlock Holmes At the Raffles Hotel (A Sherlock Mystery Book 7)

Holmes and Watson are invited to spend a well needed holiday at the luxury Raffles hotel in Singapore.

When they finally arrive at the hotel, their vacation is cut short when the wealthy wife of a hotel resident, Mr Derek Masterton, has been found dead in her apartment, her ‘Singapore Sugarplum’ sweets laced with arsenic.

With her money protected by a will, who would have the motive to kill Mrs Masterton? How could they have gotten so close, and have predicted her every move? And what of the strange goings-on reported by the butler?

Thrown back into the investigating game, Holmes and Watson must use all their deductive powers to solve the case of the poisoned sugarplums.

Sherlock Holmes at the Raffles Hotel is the seventh of John Hall's Sherlockian pastiches and a brilliant addition to the Holmes and Watson casebooks.

John Hall spent many years in the civil service before becoming a professional writer specialising in crime fiction. His book Death of a Collector won the Sherlock Magazine’s competition for the best new fictional detective. He is also the author of several other Sherlock mysteries.
