Sherlock Holmes: The Bleeding Wall

By: J. L. Tyne

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A priest in terror. A wall that bleeds. A voice that screams in Latin.

When a frightened young priest stumbles into The Delancey Tavern, raving about a failed exorcism and a mirror that cracked on its own, Dr. Margaret Walsh expects drunken rambling. But Simon Helms—the man who was once Sherlock Holmes—goes very still.

The trail leads to a shuttered parish with a history no one wants to speak of: rumors of madness cloaked as salvation, and patients treated like demons. Behind the altar lies a hidden room, a stained wall, and the echo of a girl’s scream that never truly stopped.

As Margaret and Helms peel back the layers of superstition and psychology, they confront a legacy of abuse, silence, and a Church willing to rewrite reality to protect its own. But in the darkest corners of New York, even ghosts serve someone’s purpose.

The Bleeding Wall is the third entry in Sherlock Holmes: Lost in America, a brooding, intelligent reimagining of Holmes as a man stripped of memory but not of purpose. Gripping, atmospheric, and disturbingly timely, it explores the intersection of belief, trauma, and justice in a city built on secrets.
