An unlikely detective.In addition to a race between killer and sleuth, The Final Problem is a duel of wits between authorand reader.We need a policeman, someone suggested. A detective.We have one, said Fox.Everyone followed the direction of his eyes.Thats ridiculous, I protested. Have you lost your minds?You were Sherlock Holmes.Nobody was Sherlock Holmes. He never existed. Hes a literary invention.One that you played masterfully.But that was in the movies. It had nothing to do with real life. Im just an actor.They looked at me hopefully, and the truth is that I found myself getting into character, as if the lights had been flipped on and you could hear the soft whir of the camera rolling. But even so, I decided to keep quiet, my fingers crossed under my chin. I hadnt had so much fun since the set of The Hound of the Baskervilles.June 1960. A storm strands nine travelers at an inn on the idyllic island of Utakos, across from Corfu. No one has any premonition of what is about to happen: Edith Mander, a quiet English tourist, turns up dead in the beach pavilion. It looks like a suicide, but the scene contains a series of clues too subtle for anyone but the likes of Hopalong Basil, a washedup actor who once played the most famous detective of all time on the silver screen. Having learned Sherlock Holmes deductive reasoning as part of the role, he is the only one capable of uncovering what really happened in this classic lockedroom mystery. On an island cut off from the rest of the world by the storm, everyone is automatically a suspect in this fascinating novelproblem in which detectivefiction collides in surprising ways with real life.
