The Adventure of the Copper Beeches - a Sherlock Holmes Short Story (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes #12)
Overview
When a young governess, recently unemployed and desperate for a new position, accepts a job with a couple living in a remote country home, her positive first impressions of the man and his family begin to change.
Violet Hunter is a young woman with her wits about her; she was a touch suspicious even before starting the new post. Having no family, she consulted with Sherlock Holmes. The job was lucrative and, after discussing it, she decided to accept. But a few weeks later, under a mixture of fear and uncertainty, she asks Holmes to investigate the increasingly disturbing events that have been unfolding around her. Just what is happening at the home of Jephro Rucastle and his wife?
