Sherlock Holmes Takes The Case

This wide-ranging collection of stories takes Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson from their cozy rooms in London, to exploring England's bucolic Lake District, to clambering up an extinct volcano in Scotland. There is murder on the Thames, a spectacularly unpleasant Lord finds himself on the wrong end of a carving knife at the legendary Simpson's-in-the-Strand restaurant, and the brutal slaying of the brilliant Hypatia of Alexandria in 415 CE may finally be solved. Throughout, Holmes and Watson not only endeavour to solve the crimes, but also walk the delicate line of deciding what might be the best and fairest form of justice. Finally, in a more whimsical vein, Holmes and Watson investigate the magic and mystery surrounding Christmas. And so, dear reader, by all means procure the beverage of your choice, settle into your favourite armchair, and dive into these new stories featuring old friends.
