The Case of the Vanishing Veil
London has begun to breathe again after years of shadowed conspiracies-but the peace is tenuous. Across the city, high-ranking women are vanishing without a trace, leaving behind nothing but scraps of fine lace and torn pages from private journals. The signs point to a secret network operating beneath the glittering veneer of Victorian high society: the Veiled Order. Billie Lestrade, now married to Sherlock Holmes and carrying their first child, finds herself drawn into the web alone. With Sherlock forced into the shadows, nursing wounds both physical and emotional, it falls to Billie to follow the delicate threads that connect these disappearances-and uncover the truth behind a society determined to control, silence, and bind women. But the veils hide more than identities-they hide dangerous secrets, ones that may reach back to Billie's own mother and the women who came before her. As she races against time, Billie must navigate a labyrinth of deception, hidden passageways, and whispered threats, all while protecting the life growing within her. In a city where appearances mask deadly intentions, Billie will discover that some things are meant to remain hidden-and some veils are never meant to be lifted.Complete
