Synopsis

Framed around Dr Watson’s wish that his nephew, Christopher Henry Watson MD, should act as executor and oversee the selection of unpublished cases, this book draws on a cache of adventures that had not previously been brought to print. From an opening story set in 1880, before Watson became the principal chronicler of Holmes’s work, the collection ranges across different periods of their shared history.

Among the eight stories are “A Day at the Races” and “The French Affair”, the latter placed in the time after 1891 when the world believed Holmes had died at the Reichenbach Falls. Other titles include “The Fashionably-Dressed Girl” and “The Influence Machine”, each offered as another glimpse into the enduring legacy of 221B Baker Street.
