About this ebook

Mrs Cecil Forrester is utterly dismayed by her and her husband's missing valuables. She sees no reason why her loyal maid Sarah would steal these belongings, yet is assured by both her husband and the police that Sarah is the culprit. Questioning the reliability of these assumptions, and given her husband is working so hard at the moment, Mrs Forrester takes it upon herself to visit Mr Holmes and persuade him to investigate further.

About the author

Barbara Roden (b. 1963) is a Canadian enthusiast of the ghost and mystery story who helped found the first Canadian Holmes society west of the Rocky Mountains, the Stormy Petrels of British Columbia, in 1987. With her husband, Christopher Roden, she is joint organizer of the Arthur Conan Doyle Society. They also operate the specialist ghost-story press Ash-Tree Press and the Calabash Press devoted to books about Sherlock Holmes. "The Adventure of the Suspect Servant" won a pastiche contest sponsored by the Bootmakers of Toronto in 1989 but is published here in a slightly revised form for the first time.
