| Publisher Description: Byron Lattimore, a legendary lawman from the Osage Hills of Oklahoma, travels to the English countryside with his oilman friend looking for relaxation and a fresh outlook on life. On their transatlantic ocean crossing the year after Titanic sinks in 1913, they hear a story of a savage and cunning beast terrorizing the Peaks District around the grand Chatsworth house. The beast has killed three-all attacked under a full-moon. An area priest stokes hysteria about a man-beast and possible werewolf, but the focus of the mystery is the enchanting Katherine Headley, her relationship to the victims, and her proximity to the attacks. Some mock Byron's reluctant but practical approach, but he finds help from a boy traveling with him who enthusiastically reads Sherlock Holmes novels while urging Byron to use the master detective's techniques. The western lawman has his own ways and in the end discovers the secret about The Beast of Chatsworth. |
