Sherlock Holmes, The Bleak Tree and the Hollow Hand

By John Pirillo

Samuel Clemens, better known as Mark Twain, and his best friend, Henry, sail the mighty Mississippi on a raft together as young children, creating what will one day become a great story and an adventure that will bind Samuel Clemens and his friend Henry for the rest of their lives.

Samuel Clemens, known more famously as Mark Twain, has been friends with Henry for decades. But his friend has suddenly vanished without a trace.

Samuel is stricken to the core by the disappearance of Henry, who he loves like a brother. Worried and fearful for his friend's life, Samuel decides to seek help to find what happened to his friend, Henry. And if possible, to save his life.

He suspects foul play because his friend is black.

And in the South, black people vanish every day because of bigoted Southerners who hate the black race and want them off the face of the Earth.

If a black man vanishes in Mississippi, that black person is never heard from again!

Sam's suspicions launch him on a quest to London to seek Sherlock Holmes help.

An adventure in mystery and terror begins as Sherlock Holmes and Watson head for Mississippi to seek clues as to how Henry disappeared, if he's alive still, and if so, where he is.

Each clue they find leads them into danger, and step by step towards uncovering a dark secret and discovery that will threaten not only them, but the very heart and soul of the United States of America as well.
