The redoubtable Amelia Watson – the second wife of Dr. John H. Watson of Baker Street fame – returns for thirteen light-hearted adventures whose puzzles would tax the ingenuity of the master himself! Whether soaring over England in a hot air balloon; sailing the seas on board ship; journeying to Scotland on behalf of His Majesty himself; becoming enmeshed in a Royal conspiracy at Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show; or following the clues of an ancient treasure hunt through the streets of Edwardian London, Amelia Watson is never far from a mystery, and never fails to solve the most baffling of conundrums.

Michael Mallory is the author of the novel Murder in the Bath as well as some one hundred short stories for both adults and children, many of them featuring Amelia Watson and/or Sherlock Holmes. A Derringer Award winner and two-time Pushcart Prize nominee, Mallory has also written three non-fiction books on pop culture subjects and nearly 400 magazine and newspaper articles.
