ReviewsPraise for a previous volume by Denis O. Smith [the Lost Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes]: "In this collection, Smith again demonstrates his gift for crafting new exploits of the Great Detective that combine a pitch-perfect Watsonian narrative voice with clever plots that allow Holmes to demonstrate his deductive brilliance... Smith is adept at generating suspense, even in stories not dependent on violence. His traditional approach will appeal to readers who want period mysteries featuring characters Conan Doyle would have no trouble recognizing." Review, Publishers Weekly, February 2014

Sherlock Holmes must find the answers to these and many other puzzling questions if he is to bring these cases to a successful conclusion. In this new collection of Sherlock Holmes short stories, well-known author, Denis O. Smith, accurately recreates once more both the atmosphere and the excitement of Conan Doyle's well-loved original Holmes tales., From the curious clauses in a miser's will, to a sinister tradition in an old Tudor manor-house, these twelve cases, from the early years of Holmes's career in the 1880s, present a singular collection of mysteries for the world's first consulting detective to resolve.
