Slithering Secrets, Scaly Suspects, and a Killer on the Loose!
London, 1898: Chaos strikes the London Zoo when a giant cobra escapes its cage, killing a rhesus monkey and throwing the staff into a frenzy. Dr. Watson's old schoolmate—a trailblazing anti-venom researcher—is thrust into the scandal. With his reputation on the line and suspicions mounting, Sherlock Holmes and Lucy James are called in to untangle the mystery.
But the case takes a deadly twist when Lucy discovers the escaped cobra lurking in the researcher's office—next to the lifeless body of the man who reported the monkey's death. Now, murder has slithered into the picture, and the suspects are as slippery as snakeskin.
From the zoo's shadowy enclosures to a high-stakes late-night stakeout, Holmes, Lucy, and Watson must outsmart both man and beast to catch a cunning killer.
Perfect for fans of Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, and fast-paced Victorian adventures, The Cobra in the Monkey Cage is a fang-tastic mystery filled with danger, clever twists, and reptilian chills.
