Supernatural mystery with Sherlockian overtones.

"Beastly Bones" whisks you away to a place where the boundary between the mundane and the magical is paper-thin. If the lure of combining detective work with creatures of fantasy piques your interest, navigating the twists alongside R.F. Jackaby will be a delight. The peculiar charm of this book lies in its quirky mingling of deduction and the supernatural - perfect for anyone who enjoys a playful twist on the classical sleuthing tale.

Description

I've found very little about private detective R. F. Jackaby to be standard in the time I've known him. Working as his assistant tends to call for a somewhat flexible relationship with reality . . .In 1892, New Fiddleham, New England, things are never quite what they seem, especially when Abigail Rook and her eccentric employer, R. F. Jackaby, are called upon to investigate the supernatural. First, members of a particularly vicious species of shape-shifters disguise themselves as a litter of kittens. A day later, their owner is found murdered, with a single mysterious puncture wound to her neck. Then, in nearby Gad's Valley, dinosaur bones from a recent dig go missing, and an unidentifiable beast attacks animals and people, leaving their mangled bodies behind. Policeman Charlie Cane, exiled from New Fiddleham to the valley, calls on Abigail for help, and soon Abigail and Jackaby are on the hunt for a thief, a monster, and a murderer.
