About the Book
Two adventures of Sherlock Holmes, one in two parts, and an account of the "fourth smartest man in London", John Clay.Book Synopsis
Another discovery from the vaults of Cox and Co., the old London bank which had forwarded the Deed Box of John H Watson to the author last year. The Dispatch Box contains all manner of illuminating documents about Messrs. Holmes and Watson.
Of particular interest are what the author refers to as The Affair of the Vatican Cameos, the Reigate Poisoning Case, with a shocking conclusion, and a document apparently written by the man Holmes himself called 'the fourth smartest man in London', John Clay.
Review Quotes
" Canon from start to ending and stretching from the Victorian and into the Edwardian eras with complete fidelity to Conan Doyle's originals. Thoroughly enjoyable tales of the greatest detective who ever existed (no, he never lived but he has surely existed in the world of novels and stories for a very long time)."
" This is the Holmes and Watson I've come to know and love over the years. Excellent portrayals and great stories.I can only hope Mr.Ashton continues these for years to come. Great job."
" Hugh Ashton does a fantastic job with the characters of Holmes and Watson. I would be hard pressed to find any differences between the originals and these in character, speech, tone and quality. Any Holmes lover would be happy to read these novellas and know that Holmes and Watson live on, courtesy of Mr. Ashton."
" It feels like Conan Doyle is writing again."
