Description

From the gas-lit clamour of London's streets, to the isolated Welsh countryside, the great detective Sherlock Holmes, accompanied as always by his faithful friend and biographer Dr Watson, must solve cases as complex as any he has known before, some of which bring him face to face with old enemies from the past, figures left behind in the mists of the Reichenbach Falls...A brand new cache of original cases from the brilliant imagination of June Thomson displays the master of the art of deduction at his intriguing best and proves that the game is still very much afoot.

Author Biography

JUNE THOMSON, a former teacher, has published over twenty crime novels including other pastiches of Holmes' short stories available from Allison & Busby. Her books have been translated into many languages. She lives in St Albans, Hertfordshire.

Reviews

'There aren't many writers who can capture the Doyle-Watson style almost to perfection. One of the few is June Thomson...The plots are clever without being too fancy, the writing is literate and appropriate, the atmosphere is authentic, and the characters ring true...Wholeheartedly recommended!' The District Messenger (The Sherlock Holmes Society of London) Editor's Choice: 'Holmes and his faithful friend Dr Watson unravel a freash batch of baffling cases, all appealing for fans of the original Conan Doyle stories who will find much familiar flavour here to enjoy.'
