Their initial investigations lead them to several suspects, all of whom have a reason for creating the strange goings-on. To Sherlock’s dismay, one of their suspects includes the famous medium, Madam Rosalind, who has crossed paths with them before.As true sceptics of all things paranormal, Holmes and Watson continue with their investigation, knowing that the hand behind the occurrences must be of an earthly nature, and not a spiritual one.But Madam Rosalind has other ideas and soon throws the investigation off course.

these are cute novellas. Sherlock as a character is a little softened in this but I'm more than ok with that. As much as i love Sherlock he can definitely come off sexist as hell. They do still feel like Sherlock and Watson

Ok

Another relaxing who-done-it mystery without overwhelming odds.
A museum full of lifelike wax figures of historical persons...A perfect place to become haunted.
I think this author is shaping to be the Hallmark writer of Sherlock Holmes.

I’ve mentioned in previous books by Ms. Swift, her portrayal of the great duo is spot on and true to Canon. Though some writers would use a title like, “Haunted Museum”, to write a paranormal themed Holmes story, this writer approached the mystery in true Holmes’s theme of there needing to be a logical explanation as opposed to a supernatural one. I do admit, I was surprised in the end as to who was responsible for it all.

A short book in which Holmes try’s to unravel some strange happenings in a wax museum.
The book was easy to read and I enjoyed the characters.

48:11 Those desert Arabs who have held back will tell you: “Our property and our families have kept us busy. Seek forgiveness for us!” They say something with their tongues that is not in their hearts. Say: “Who controls anything for you against God, if you should want to cause you any harm, or wants to offer you some advantage? Rather God is informed about whatever you are doing!
