The third edition of this well-received collection of Sherlock
Holmes short stories. Sherlock Magazine called the original edition
"One of the best collections of Holmes pastiches for some time" and
the Newsletter of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London said "Mr
Stockwell clearly knows his period and has an engagingly inventive
imagination." Other critics have remarked how the author hits off
the Watsonian idiom with remarkable accuracy, the president of the
Czech Society of Sherlock Holmes saying "The stories look like
being from the pen of John H Watson himself" and the Midwest Book
Review stating "Completely faithful to the spirit and tone of the
Doyle originals." This new edition contains a total of seventeen
unusual, bizarre and thoroughly intriguing tales written in the
classic manner. Why does a man wear a yellow top hat to feed the
pigeons in Trafalgar Square? Why should a maiden lady be terrified
at receiving a jigsaw, piece by piece? How can a cyclist disappear
in the snow without leaving any traces? The answers to these and
many other enigmas are revealed by the master sleuth in this
collection of stories written in the authentic style as narrated by
Dr Watson.
