The Adventure of the Missing Partner

The great detective thrills and beguiles in one of his greatest adventures...Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson have thrown themselves headlong into the swirling snowstorms and primeval forests of northern Minnesota in a singularly vexing case. The year is 1892 in the fledgling mining town of Gunflint City. Hardscrabble miners and well-monied speculators have joined forces to extract iron ore, preparing to send it to market on their new railroad line. Then disaster strikes: a founding partner has disappeared, threatening the collapse of the entire operation. By inference and deduction, Holmes suspects there is a cover-up. With his native cunning, by way of snowshoes and dogsled, the great detective strives to uncover a deep and tangled secret.
