Sherlock Holmes and the Rune Stone Mystery 6-Copy Counter Display (Paperback)

Larry Millett has managed to recapture the voice and style of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and bring Sherlock Holmes across the Pond to America. In this third adventure Holmes is hired by King Oskar II of Sweden to authenticate a mysterious stone dug up by a western Minnesota farmer. Trouble begins to mount, however, when the farmer is murdered and the stone disappears. Joining Holmes in the quest for the archaeological truth is Sherlock Holmes and the Ice Palace Murders alumnus Shadwell Rafferty. With Rafferty's talents for "discreet investigations" and Holmes's deductive genius, Sherlock Holmes and the Rune Stone Mystery is a rollicking and suspenseful incarnation of Doyle's classic sleuth.
