Today I'd like to shine a spotlight on a new release in a series in which I am woefully far behind. The Sign of Four Spirits by Vicki Delany is the ninth book in the Sherlock Holmes Bookshop Mystery series.
Blurb:
When a psychic fair arrives in West London, Gemma Doyle, owner of
the Sherlock Holmes Bookshop and Emporium, wants nothing to do with it.
But somehow, at the urging of Donald Morris, an enthusiastic
Sherlockian, she finds herself talked into attending a séance, along
with baker and best friend Jayne Wilson, store assistant, Ashleigh, and
former pop star Bunny Leigh.
But to her surprise, Gemma finds
herself banned from the séance and shown the door. Curious, she listens
in from outside the room. The medium informs a disappointed Donald that
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle will not be able to make it tonight. Then, Gemma
hears a voice cut off, a cry for help, a scream. Gemma bursts into the
library to see that someone has collapsed on the table--dead. The
windows are all locked, and Gemma was guarding the only door. Someone in
this room is a murderer. But who?
The game is once again afoot
for Gemma Doyle, as she hunts a killer. But, this time, is the killer of
flesh and blood or had the medium summoned doom from beyond the veil?
