Note: When the body of a prominent businessman is found floating in an ancient Roman bath, all the evidence points to a young man named Ronald Standish as the murderer. His wife appeals to her old governess Amelia, the second wife of Dr John H. Watson, for help. Soon, Amelia is thrust into a baffling mystery involving the practice of ancient pagan religious rites in the modern city of Bath. At every step, though, she finds evidence that makes the case against Standish even stronger.

Note: A new collection of puzzlers featuring the second wife of Dr. John H. Watson, of Sherlock Holmes fame. This time Amelia is plunged into a series of affairs that include the case of a carriage that vanishes into thin air, a jewellery theft on board an ocean liner, and an ancient royal document that may challenge the state of the sovereignty itself. As Amelia solves each case with resourcefulness and wit, she demonstrates the Holmesian adage: 'Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth'.

Note: The indomitable Amelia Watson, second wife of the famous doctor, continues to bend her formidable intellect to solving further crimes. Whether foiling anarchists, investigating a possible murder committed high above the streets of London, rescuing her old theatre colleague Harry Benbow from a decidedly awkward scrape involving a haunted house, untangling the connection behind a trail of all-too-real headless corpses, or determining the truth behind a case of apparent spontaneous combustion, this respectable Edwardian lady remains a force to be reckoned with.
