Arthur Conan Doyle is chiefly known for his greatest creation, Sherlock Holmes, that most rational of beings. But Doyle also passionately came to believe in his later years that ghosts and fairies existed, and that his wife, among many others, could talk to the dead. Here, in "The Mystery of Cloomber," we get both Doyles in one story: a mystery yarn with an occult tinge. Fans of the Holmes stories will enjoy it for its rather-more-stodgy-than-usual telling of a suspense tale that might have puzzled Sherlock Holmes (briefly), if he'd believed in astral projection and Eastern mysticism and numerous Theosophical notions of the time.
