Sherlock Holmes

Sherlock Holmes and his faithful friend Dr. John Watson return in forty-one new classic pastiche adventures. Spanning Holmes's career, the tales chronicle adventures that are by turns whimsical, mysterious, and dangerous. In Part 1, Tales of Light, Holmes is presented with quirky clients and bizarre problems. From a satirical painter who has hidden the key to a fortune within a ludicrous painting, to a modern mummy who has walked off his job, to an empty manager in a church nativity scene, Holmes and Watson experience extraordinary cases. In Part 2, Tales of Shadow, confounding and mysterious problems put the great detective to the test. Why do white roses seem to fall from the sky, heralding deaths to follow? Who is the mysterious veiled man who rides about the countryside? What diabolical creature is lurking within a painted chest? Holmes and Watson must keep their nerve and wits about them as every case takes an unexpected turn. In Part 3, Tales of Darkness, Holmes confronts his most nefarious opponents, including villains who use grief to kill and beauty to blackmail. Danger lurks in unexpected corners; anyone could be capable of bloody murder. Terror and tragedy mingle, as Holmes and Watson battle the most hideous forms of evils lurking within the human heart.
