This follow-up to the national best-seller A Study in Sherlock is a stunning new volume of original stories compiled by award-winning Sherlockians Laurie R. King and Leslie S. Klinger.

Avery Kingwood’s marriage crashed and burned…on his honeymoon. After he finds out his wife Cassie’s devastating truth, she forces him to sign a separation agreement — one that's more like a gag order. Unable to say what happened to his marriage, Cassie expertly manipulates Avery’s entire family against him. Tucked away on the opposite end of the country from his wife and family, Avery finds something that gives his life renewed meaning and hope: Sheila Beller. Perfect, well-respected, charming — and untouchable.

The terrorized children of Governor's Road grew up without resolution or closure to the most devastating event of their young lives. Their friend, a child their age, disappeared one afternoon and somehow, they never seem to learn what happened. Saddened parents decide to protect their children, and the obvious fear recedes in the face of the calm that settles back over the neighborhood. But, fear never really disappears until it's confronted.

When green-eyed charmer John Beller breaks through the chaos of her life, offering all the fruits of lust and love, 32-year-old Mary Williams desperately wants to partake. On the verge of a mental break where footsteps echo from empty rooms and constant phone calls have no one on the other end, she craves the peaceful embrace of John’s arms. His confident sphere is the one place she can forget about her weakening grasp of reality.

Despite their 12-year age difference, and all his efforts to forget her, green-eyed Lily Beller has imprisoned Dr. Darren Mansfield’s heart for the last five years. He left his father’s medical practice to avoid the too-young temptation, but now she’s inexplicably working at the same hospital as him.

There’s a thin line between devotion and obsession, and crossing it is deadly. Danielle Madison has spent the eight years since her ninth birthday channeling the devastation of her best friend’s murder into catching pedophiles online. Being the one to have found Kira’s body, she can’t forget the brutality of the crime. Worse, she’s sure Kira wasn’t the murderer’s first victim. Since he was never caught, she’s also sure Kira wasn’t his last, and she’s dead set on figuring out his identity.

This collection of Beller Ties also includes Something So Beautiful and Now And Always, in which one thing is certain–love isn’t only blind, it’s dangerous.
