About this ebook
The Casebook of Elisha Grey VIII chronicles the work of Elisha Grey, scholar and consulting detective in Atlantis, as recorded by his former partner, an architect and healer in Atlantis as well as mother to his three daughters, Kiara Ptolmai. The three novelettes are: "Elisha Grey and the Silent Boy"; "The Minerva House Murders"; and "The Disappearance of Sequoyah and the Passing of the Trident". The book follows the previous books in the Casebook of Elisha Grey series.
Elisha Grey, scholar in numerous subjects & consulting detective in Atlantis during its Second Era, together with his flatmate Kiara Ptolmai -- daughter of Menos Ptolmai, Atlantean Ambassador to Chungkuo, investigate three crimes. In "Elisha Grey and the Silent Boy" Elisha Grey returns to Atlantis after a long absence, and is asked to look into a murder case where the only witness -- an earwitness -- is a teenage boy who refuses to speak. Due to his intellectual brilliance, Elisha asks Kiara help him adopt the boy. "The Minerva House Murders” are brought to Kiara's attention as she is the lead architect on the project whose workmen are being murdered one by one as they travel home. Elisha and Kiara's questioning lead to the personal history of her employer and uncover an unusual motive. In "The Disappearace of Sequoyah and the Passing of the Trident", after Kamay leaves Atlantis for a few months with the extraterrestrial Metalons to learn more about his illness before Kiara bears his son, she and Elisha discover that Sequoyah has seemingly vanished. Their investigations take them into his late childhood and involve his partner Beatrix in collecting information about his newsstand.
