Sherlock Holmes and the Rune Stone Mystery

A magnificent and riveting Sherlockian adventure in the land of lakes and arctic winters

As the century winds down, Sherlock Holmes is engaged by King Oskar II of Sweden, who proposes to purchase a mysterious Viking rune stone dug up by a Minnesota farmer. But before the celebrated detective can attempt to authenticate this fabulous find, the hapless farmer is murdered, and his stone vanishes. Assisted once again by tough-as-leather saloon-keeper Shadwell Rafferty (last seen in The Ice Palace Murders), Holmes must navigate a maze of intrigue and villainy to track down a rune stone, a murderer, and the archaeological truth.
