Jekyll & Hyde: Consulting Detectives
When Muriel Carew attends a lavish society party, the last person she expects to bump into is her ex-fiancée, Henry Jekyll. When Jekyll turns out to be investigating a series of missing persons in London, Muriel is intrigued. As their search takes a dark turn and the case becomes a murder investigation, Muriel finds herself deep in a mystery involving a nefarious group exploring their own hidden alter-egos within the beating heart of London’s high society.
Sherlock Holmes and the Twelve Thefts of Christmas
Sherlock Holmes is set a fiendish puzzle by Irene Adler over a snowy London Christmas with clues that are all variations on the theme of “theft without theft”. Preoccupied, Holmes neglects the case of Norwegian arctic explorer Fridtjof Nansen, who has received a series of threats in the form of animal carcasses left on his doorstep. Could they really be gifts from a strange spirit that has pursued Nansen since the completion of his expedition to cross Greenland? And might this case somehow be related to Irene Adler’s great game?
Tim Major talks about his Victorian crime novels with Hull Noir co-founder, Nick Quantrill.
