Traditional Detective Mysteries

Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson are back – this time to try and catch the Ripper.

Only a few short years ago the monster known as Jack the Ripper held the East End of London in a grip of terror. Now there are rumours that the Ripper has returned.

Three respectable young women have been slaughtered in Mayfair, the city’s most respectable and exclusive district. But instead of consulting Sherlock Holmes, the police prefer to seek advice from Dr. Karl Schermann. While the flamboyant German enjoys official approval and public acclaim, Holmes sits at home, brooding.

But when another woman is murdered, Holmes decides to take matters into his own hands. In one of their most difficult cases yet, Holmes and Watson face the impossible: unmasking London’s most infamous killer before he once again slips away into obscurity…

Post-Apocalyptic Science Fiction

From the safety of the Deep Hole Sanctuary, two are sent to the surface for the first time in nine years. Rumors, tales, and expectations for the world above are that they will find a desolate wasteland filled with mutated animals and bands of roving hoards of starving people. It’s a death sentence.

The book is about the events, of course, but more so about the people and how they evolve to cope with life on the surface, one they have not seen since age seven. What they encounter, how they handle each crises, and their growth as they survive in a world unknown and unexpected. Clary’s books always contain unexpected twists and turns, so the reader never knows where the story is going-and that is part of the fun.
