Sherlock Holmes and Lucy James are piecing together the clues when American reporter Nellie Bly bursts into Baker Street, pursued by shadowy thugs. Bly reveals a chilling connection between "Lady Whispers" and the coronation ball—but before she can say more, she vanishes.
As the grand ball begins, Holmes, Lucy, and the Baker Street team must race to stop a sinister plot. With danger in every waltz and betrayal behind every mask, can they save the King before the next dance turns deadly?
The Affair of the Coronation Ball is a thrilling Victorian action adventure mystery packed with intrigue, clever twists, and royal suspense. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Deanna Raybourn, and Sherlockian adventures.
