The New York Times bestselling author James Lovegrove continues the story of Sherlock Holmes and The Hound of the Baskervilles, as five years later, another monstrous creature stalks across Dartmoor.

In 1894, the monstrous Hound of the Baskervilles has been dead for five years, along with its no less monstrous owner, the naturalist Jack Stapleton. Sir Henry Baskerville is living contentedly at Baskerville Hall with his new wife Audrey and their three-year-old son Harry.

Until, that is, Audrey's lifeless body is found on the moors, drained of blood. It would appear that some fiendish creature is once more at large on Dartmoor and has, like its predecessor, targeted the unfortunate Baskerville family.

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are summoned to Sir Henry's aid, and our heroes must face a marauding beast that is the very stuff of nightmares. It seems that Stapleton may not have perished in the Great Grimpen Mire after all, as Holmes believed, and is hell-bent on revenge.

As the investigation unfolds, Holmes and Watson discover a web of secrets and lies that stretches back to the days of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original novel. They must navigate a treacherous landscape of mist, fog, and danger, as they attempt to unravel the mystery of the Hound of the Baskervilles and bring the killer to justice.

Along the way, they encounter a cast of characters that includes the eccentric Professor Moriarty, the beautiful and mysterious Lady Baskerville, and the mysterious Dr. James Mortimer, who may hold the key to unlocking the mystery.

The Hound of the Baskervilles is a thrilling and suspenseful adventure that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end. James Lovegrove's masterful storytelling and vivid descriptions bring the characters and the setting to life, making this a must-read for fans of Sherlock Holmes and horror fiction alike.
