The foreign rivals of Sherlock Holmes face a sinister array of villains in these thirteen detective stories by contemporaries of Conan Doyle. A companion volume to The Rivals of Sherlock Holmes, Cosmopolitan Crimes shifts the scene to foreign locales where brilliant sleuths challenge Holmes at his own game. Whether the cases involve a lost bracelet in Belgium, anonymous letters in Vienna, a Mexican seer, or a beautiful woman who orders a doctor to chop off her finger, here are adventure, suspense, and brain-teasing mystery!
