The Whole Art of Detection

Lost Mysteries of Sherlock Holmes

By: Lyndsay Faye

This collection of short mysteries by the international-bestselling author of Dust and Shadow “belongs on the top shelf with the very best of Doyle’s” (Nicholas Meyer, author of The Seven-Per-Cent Solution). Inspired by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson, Edgar Award–finalist Lyndsay Faye has masterfully woven these quintessential characters into her own works of fiction—from her acclaimed debut novel, Dust and Shadow, to a series of short stories for the Strand Magazine, whose predecessor published the first Sherlock Holmes story in 1892. The best of Faye’s Sherlockian tales, including two new works, are brought together in a collection that spans the character’s career, from self-taught upstart to lauded detective, both before and after he faked his own death over a Swiss waterfall in 1894. In “The Lowther Park Mystery,” the unsociable Holmes is forced to attend a garden party at the request of his politician brother and improvises a bit of theater to foil a conspiracy against the government. “The Adventure of the Thames Tunnel” brings Holmes’s attention to the murder of a jewel thief in the middle of an underground railway passage. With Holmes and Watson encountering all manner of ungrateful relatives, phony psychologists, wronged wives, outright villains, and even a peculiar species of deadly red leech, The Whole Art of Detection is a must-read for any fan of historical crime fiction. “If Lyndsay Faye’s byline weren’t on the cover, readers might deduce that the Sherlock Holmes mysteries in The Whole Art of Detection actually came from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.” —David Martindale, Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Gracie's Journey

A heartwarming story about loss and a quest for remembrance

By: Faye Cady

Thirteen-year-old Grace Thibodaux knew that she was a lucky girl, probably the luckiest girl ever. Both of her parents, Joe-Joe and Em, loved her so much. Grace loved them too. Their home was filled with music and laughter. Every day they taught Grace something new. Having Down syndrome, some things came easy to Grace; others were more difficult for her to learn. However, she always thought of what Em said: "That does not define you, Gracie." In other words, Down syndrome was just one part of Grace, like her dimples or brown eyes. Em had a way of explaining such matters: "You can do almost anything if you want it enough, Gracie." Life was good. Then on a December day, in the blink of an eye, the Thibodaux household changed forever. Gracie's beloved Joe-Joe was killed in a tragic accident. Her whole world was shattered on that day. Grace didn't think it could get worse, but it did. She awoke one day, and she could not remember Joe-Joe's voice or his laughter. She thought that she was losing him forever. Grace knew that she had to do something to keep Joe-Joe in her mind and in her heart, and she had to do it alone. She couldn't tell Em; she was already so sad. After careful planning, Gracie embarks on a suspenseful journey that brings life lessons, friendship, and healing.

After Postmodernism

A Naturalistic Reconstruction of the Humanities

By: Jan Faye

The philosophy of the humanistic sciences has been a blind-spot in analytic philosophy. This book argues that by adopting an appropriate pragmatic analysis of explanation and interpretation it is possible to show that scientific practice of humanistic sciences can be understood on similar lines to scientific practice of natural and social sciences.

Livingston County

By: Faye Tramble Teitloff

On December 13, 1798, the Kentucky General Assembly enacted legislation authorizing the formation of Livingston County, named for Robert R. Livingston of New York, who helped draft the Declaration of Independence. The year 1811 brought the invention of the steamboat, which created transportation and passenger trade up and down the Cumberland and Ohio Rivers. Solidifying Livingston County's importance as a river port and stop-off for travelers, steamboats also brought their share of interesting characters to town. The stories and pictures still remain today, as tales of the Ford's Ferry Gang, the Horrible Harpes, and the murder of a local slave--killed by a relative of Thomas Jefferson--are just a few of the fascinating accounts included in this book.
