Product Description
(Formerly titled Poirot and the Doctor)
Twenty years ago, Harold's little sister vanished into the decrepit mansion known as the Bonehouse. Now, Harold is a middle-aged Agatha Christie aficionado, still obsessing over what might have been if he'd only been a little braver that day, if he'd only been a little bit more like his childhood hero - the fourth Doctor.
But when Harold meets an out-of-town cosplayer in full Tom Baker kit, he decides to do as the Doctor would have done, and return to the Bonehouse in search of answers. But can one amateur thespian and one drunken science fiction fan really solve this mystery, and put little Elizabeth to rest?
Hercule and the Doctor is a 6500 word mystery about love, loss, and the monsters we wish were living under the stairs. Hercule and the Doctor is also available in Future Tides: The Collected Works of Christopher Ruz, a $6.99, 60,000 word collection of 18 short stories and novellas, encompassing everything published by Ruz between 2007 and 2011.
