A black-edged note arrives at Baker Street before breakfast: "My brother has been found dead. Last night I heard him playing in a locked and empty room. May I come to you at ten?" So begins one of the strangest puzzles ever laid before Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson — for Theodore Henshaw is unquestionably dead, and yet his sister Caroline swears she heard his violin sounding an unfinished air from a room that was empty, and locked from within. From a sitting-room where a phonograph and a brass horn have taken over the breakfast table, to the cold shadows of North End House and a violin hidden inside a wall, Holmes must untangle how a dead man came to play twice — and who needed the household to believe that the grave itself keeps time. The Adventure of the Dead Man's Violin is an original Sherlock Holmes mystery, written in the classic Victorian style, about music, grief, and the difference between a haunting and a very human deception.ℹ️ FOR LISTENERSThis is an original Sherlock Holmes mystery written by Nocturnal Tales in the classic Victorian tradition — not one of Arthur Conan Doyle's original stories.

When you hear something impossible, do you reach first for the ghost, or for the trick? 🕵️📖 GET THE EBOOK — $3.99📌 Patreon — included with Writing Table & Archive Society, or one-time purchasehttps://www.patreon.com/posts/156573383🛒 Gumroad — EPUB + PDF includedhttps://nocturnaltalespod.gumroad.com/l/ebookvol2❤️ Buy Me a Coffee — EPUB + PDF includedhttps://buymeacoffee.com/nocturnaltales/e/532495❤️ SUPPORT & LISTENING OPTIONS📌 Patreon — ad-free, early access, bonus contenthttps://www.patreon.com/NocturnalTales📺 Rumble — free, supports us with ad revenuehttps://rumble.com/c/c-7820714❤️ Buy Me a Coffee — one-time supporthttps://buymeacoffee.com/nocturnaltales💛 PayPal — one-time tiphttps://paypal.me/nocturnaltalesprod🎧 Spotify — follow the showhttps://open.spotify.com/show/0OQ7OEseXIMbMt2NTI7oHy🎧 Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/nocturnal-tales-mystery-audiobooks-and-crime-stories/id1896195848🧾 CREDITSWritten by Nocturnal Tales.
