Synopsis

Six mysteries draw Sherlock Holmes into a series of puzzling situations, from unusual clauses in a miser’s will to a plea for help written on a tiny scrap of paper. Questions arrive without warning: a cardboard packet of children’s bricks delivered by post, a man found dying in a deserted warehouse in London’s East End, and the unexplained removal of newlyweds’ names from a hotel register.

Across the collection, Denis O. Smith aims to recreate the atmosphere and excitement associated with Conan Doyle’s original tales, while setting each case firmly within Holmes’s early professional years. Suitable for readers who enjoy Sherlock Holmes short stories.
