Titania Medien (Verlag)
978-3-69027-012-0 (ISBN)
Paris, at the end of the 19th century: When a cash courier is found hanged in the attic of the reputable banking house Beaumont Frères, the police suspect suicide and close the case. Years later, Maurice Beaumont, junior partner of the firm, disappears without a trace while on vacation – another mystery with no solution.
And all the while the brutal murder of a rag-and-bone man, contemporaneous with the hanging, raises no suspicions. However, precisely this event could hold the key to the solution of the other cases.
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson travel to the French capital; in the depths of the Paris police archives they stumble upon a clue that leads their investigation in a new direction...

Kornel Kossuth has been interested in writing and language for as long as he can remember, which may have to do with his bilingual upbringing. After studying law (attaining a doctor’s degree) and English literature, he worked for several years as a lawyer in Vienna before moving to the UK and becoming an English teacher. Every so often in his free time he and his old Remington Portable can be found on the Southbank in London, where he works as the poetry busker, typing poems on the spot for passers-by based on topics given by them. In the course of his various careers he has published legal articles on energy law, public procurement and life sciences; educational resources for English; poetry in English and articles on Sibelius. His current projects include a prose version of the Finnish national epic, the Kalevala, a poem cycle on the seven deadly sins and modernized versions of stories from Ovid’s Metamorphoses (in verse). In the past, Kornel has helped with research on some projects for Titania Medien, for who he is now translating the new Sherlock Holmes stories.
