Murder in the Dark: An Ishmael Jones Mystery
Ishmael Jones has been despatched to assist a group of scientists who are investigating a mysterious black hole which has appeared on a Somerset hillside. Could it really be a doorway to another dimension? When one of the scientists disappears into the hole - with fatal consequences - Ishmael must prove whether it was an accident - or murder.
A Unique Blend of Mystery and Science Fiction
Simon R. Green delivers another compelling entry in the Ishmael Jones Mystery series, combining classic detective fiction with paranormal and science fiction elements. This paperback novel takes readers to the Somerset countryside where the boundaries between reality and the unknown blur in deadly fashion.
Plot and Setting
The story centers on an unexplained phenomenon: a black hole appearing on a hillside in Somerset. Scientists gather to study this potential doorway to another dimension, but their investigation turns fatal when one of their colleagues disappears into the mysterious void. Ishmael Jones must navigate both the scientific complexities and human motives to determine the truth behind the death.
What Makes This Mystery Stand Out
This installment combines traditional British mystery conventions with speculative elements including dimensional travel and extraterrestrial possibilities. The Somerset setting provides an atmospheric backdrop for the investigation, while the supernatural elements add tension and intrigue beyond typical detective fiction.
The Ishmael Jones character brings his unique investigative approach to a case that challenges conventional explanations. Readers who appreciate mysteries that venture beyond standard crime procedurals will find the blend of genres refreshing.
Perfect For Readers Who Enjoy
Fans of cozy mysteries with a twist will appreciate the accessible writing style combined with high-concept science fiction elements. The book appeals to readers of urban fantasy, paranormal mysteries, and those who enjoy detective stories that incorporate the occult and supernatural.
The humorous touches throughout the narrative prevent the story from becoming too dark, making it an engaging page turner that balances mystery, science fiction, and entertainment.
