Desperate times call for drastic measures . . . and Miss Caroline Devereux is most certainly desperate. Her spendthrift father's been gambling away every spare shilling, racking up debts, selling off their family's coveted objets d'art, and bringing them to the edge of ruin. Up until now, she's been able to stave off the creditors—and afford luxuries like tea—by penning sensational Gothic tales. But they're out of time, and Caroline must play the one card she has left.

Harriet White is no stranger to odd correspondence. Ensconced in the basement of the Baker Street building society, her job is to reply to the mail they receive on behalf of Sherlock Holmes. But while letters to the fictional sleuth may be plentiful, telegrams are rare, and so when she receives one describing the grave situation of celebrated author Philip St John, her interest is piqued. The writer describes St John as being consumed by terror, seeing ghostly apparitions on the fens, and only at ease in the company of his loyal wolfhound.
