Sherlock Holmes - The Kohada Collection

[close] 'This agency stands flat-footed upon the ground and there it must remain. The world is big enough for us. No ghost need apply.'

Arthur Conan Doyle, The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire.

Despite Holmes' injunction, clients troubled with vampires, apparitions, mummies and disembodied skulls mount the seventeen steps at 221B Baker Street and apply to his agency, and he is reluctantly obliged to investigate their claims.
In this series of five traditional novelettes, Holmes and Watson probe evidence that suggests ghouls and ghosts are behind the macabre, uncanny and eerie happenings in a grimy house in Stepney, on board one of Her Majesty's men o' war in the Thames, at the British Museum, at the Japanese Village Exhibition and at a séance in a genteel villa in West London.
Have ghosts had the temerity to challenge Sherlock Holmes, or will Holmes and Watson uncover human agencies behind the supposed supernatural?
