Synopsis

This collection draws together an eclectic range of Holmes stories from the MX Series of New Sherlock Holmes stories and from Holmes anthologies published by Belanger Books. Across more than a dozen tales, Holmes is repeatedly defined by his intelligence and deductive reasoning, whether he is unpicking a mystery tied to a man lost in time, aiding an old acquaintance, or matching wits with a spirited young woman on a train.

The selection moves between pieces that echo the canonical style of Arthur Conan Doyle and stories that place Holmes in other settings, including the worlds of H. G. Wells and a steampunk London. Other adventures set him against spies, zombies, venomous reptiles, Satanists, assassins and gangsters, creating a varied mix for readers who enjoy Sherlock Holmes pastiche and anthology fiction.
