Synopsis

Inspired by Dr Watson’s reference to a battered tin dispatch box of case papers, this collection continues a long tradition of new Holmes adventures written in the classic mould. The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories launched in 2015 with stories set within the correct time period and written by Sherlockian authors from around the world; over ten years, the series expanded to 52 volumes and more than 1,000 stories.

This companion volume sits within the closing quartet (Parts 49 to 52), presenting mysteries that range from untold cases to sequels to canonical adventures, alongside investigations that take unexpected turns. The stories follow Holmes and Watson from their early Baker Street years through to the post-war period of Holmes’s retirement, for readers who enjoy traditional, time-period Sherlock Holmes pastiches.
