Synopsis

Inspired by Dr Watson’s reference to a battered tin dispatch box of unpublished case notes, this collection continues the tradition of new “traditional” Holmes adventures written in the spirit of the original Canon. Part XXVIII revisits the seasonal theme first explored in the series’ Christmas collection, presenting 57 further stories set during, or around, the Christmas period.

Published as one of three companion volumes released simultaneously, the stories range across the years 1869 to 1888 and offer a mix of mysteries, some directly tied to Christmas and others simply unfolding in that winter season. Royalties from the collection are donated by the writers to support the preservation of Undershaw, a former home of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, making it a fitting choice for dedicated Sherlock Holmes readers and seasonal mystery collections.
