It’s their toughest case yet. And their best detective is missing.


Holmes, Margaret and Poe’s Brooklyn-based detective agency solves the crimes no one else can. Or they did – until Holmes decided to leave the business.

There is no time to waste as the team are called to a fresh NYPD crime scene – and tasked with looking into the disappearance of six infants.

Time is ticking as they work to unravel the mystery.

But they need Holmes.

If they're going to solve the crime of the century, first they must save their friend.

Praise for Holmes, Margaret and Poe . . .

'A classic, witty and wonderful mystery from the king of crime. Fast-paced and fun, clever and exciting. I loved it' Chris Whitaker

I loved every criminally delicious moment of Holmes, Margaret and Poe. What a wild ride! Hooked from the first page - and not just by the edge of my seat crime stories but also the depth and complexity of the characters. Rock on Book 2! - Dreda Say Mitchell
