Sherlock Holmes! The very name of the world's greatest detective conjures up images of Victorian London, gaslit streets, hansom cabs and dense fogs. But there was a time, a dark, three-year period, when london had to make do without Sherlock Holmes. From 1891 to 1894, he was presumed dead, having perished during the epic struggle with that infamous Napoleon of Crime, Professor Moriarty, atop the Reichenbach Falls. But unknown to most, even his friend Dr. Watson, Holmes survived. During those three years, he roamed the world, acting as an agent for the British Government and using his very special skills along the way. Holmes Away From Home, Volume II - 1893-1894 contains a collection of new traditional Holmes adventures, namely: The Adventure of the Old Brownstone, The Adventure of the Flaked Breakfast Cereal, For Want of a Sword, The Case of the Fragrant Blackmailer, A Case of Juris Imprudence, A Most Careful, Strategic, and Logical Mind, The Aviator's Murder, The French Affair, The W

Sherlock Holmes himself would have us believe that, once a case was finished, it – or the people involved – never crossed his mind again. “A client is to me a mere unit,” he once told Watson, “a factor in a problem.” And yet, in a career spanning multiple decades and thousands of cases, he must have occasionally re-crossed paths with previous clients – and the occasional villain as well! This anthology, with twenty-nine brand new stories, spread over three volumes, reveals some of those sequel investigations. There are stories ranging from Holmes’s early days in Montague Street, through the legendary Baker Street years, and well into his retirement. We meet former clients with new problems, and former adversaries too. Sometimes we find that the published Canonical version of a story was only the beginning, while other tales in this collection reveal what was really going on during the original narratives. Join us as we return to Baker Street and discover more authentic adventures of Sherlock Holmes, described by the estimable Dr. Watson as “ . . . the best and wisest . . . whom I have ever known.” The game is afoot! Volume II – 1894-1902 The Great Detective (A Poem) – Rosie Mower The Adventure of the Empty Cell – Kevin P. Thornton The Case of the Mysterious Horseman – Roger Riccard The Adventure of the Third Traitor – Craig Janacek A Frail Thread – Jacquelynn Morris Mercy Unwilling to Trust – Thomas Fortenberry The Officer in the Duke of Wellington’s Regiment – Tim Symonds The Fear of Retribution – Craig Stephen Copland The Case of the Stratford Poisoner – Mark Mower The Musgrave Burden – John Linwood Grant Another Man’s Poison – Paul Goodenough The Mysterious Client – Derrick Belanger

A Farewell to Baker Street

There is always room in the world for more gripping tales about the exploits of the inimitable Sherlock Holmes and the redoubtable Dr Watson. Here is a collection of five previously unknown cases from the astonishing career of the consulting detective and his ever-loyal partner. An Affair of the Heart demonstrates the critical interplay between the two men which made their partnership so memorable and endearing. The Curious Matter of the Missing Pearmain is a classic locked-room mystery, while The Case of the Cuneiform Suicide Note sees Dr Watson using his expert knowledge in helping to solve the mystery surrounding the death of an academic. In A Study in Verse the pair assists the Birmingham City Police in a complicated case of robbery which leads them towards a new and dangerous adversary. And to complete the collection, we have The Trimingham Escapade, the very last case the pair enjoyed together, which neatly showcases the inestimable talents of Sherlock Holmes. All of these tales are designed to contribute in some small part to the lasting memory of two extraordinary men who once occupied that setting we have come to know and love as 221B Baker Street.
