IT LOOKED LIKE A CASE FOR SHERLOCK HOLMES...BUT HE WAS THE CORPSE!
"It's Homes, all right," agreed jaunty tweedy Jessica Fletcher as she peered at the dead man in the swimming pool. His Inverness cape and deerstalker hat were quite unmistakable. Unfortunately, his face, rearranged by the fatal shot, was not.
The costume party at a New York publisher's elegant mansion had been a smashing success...until murder showed up as an uninvited guest. The police looked with undisguised dismay at a whole roomful of suspects dressed up as fictional characters. But Jessica, a best-selling mystery writer turned detective. had already decided which posh partygoers belonged in the Social Register and which better fit on a wanted poster. After all, the murder of Sherlock Holmes was her first real case...and that meant discovering not only whodunit, but whose body it was...and why he was killed.
