Sherlock Holmes and the Glasswright’s Shadow: A Victorian Mystery of Locked Rooms, Hidden Justice and a Thief Too Close to Home (The Carlos T Dawring Victorian Murder Mysteries Book 11)

In the fog-bound streets of Victorian London, a thief known only as the Glasswright begins a series of impossible robberies from the houses of the wealthy and powerful. Windows remain unbroken.
