This is the retelling of Agatha Christie's original classic by Dr. John Watson to Sherlock Holmes as Holmes provides clues and corrections along with illustrations which help the reader learn that Hastings is really Watson and Holmes is disguised as Hercule Poirot.

"'The Anonymous Girl' continues Zaydee's adventures, picking up from where the action ended in "That Girl Started Her Own Country." After helping journalist Steven Larson with his research on the Bilderberg Group, she gets involved in something new and dangerous, stealing two FBI agents' IDs. With the help of her friend, Lynora, she intends to open two bank accounts in their names. In the span of 277 pages, Zaydee might just become the world's first trillionare, and she might even have something to do with the infamous Bitcoin, which is said to have been invented by Satoshi Nakamoto. Many people believe that Satoshi Nakamoto is actually a group of people, and not just one person. Might it be that Zaydee is the real inventor of the digital currency Bitcoin?"

The Sovereign Order of Monte Cristo begins with a condensed retelling of The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas, related through the voice of Sherlock Holmes. It includes exhilarating new adventures, characters, and ideas, carrying the reader through books I and II and into book III of an ever-expanding new series based on the classic. The author consulted the original French as well as the oldest English translations of The Count of Monte Cristo, but the style of the retelling, in the distinctive voice of Sherlock Holmes, constitutes a new work. Books II and III, incorporated herein, are wholly original sequels although they include characters from the original classic. The author of The Sovereign Order of Monte Cristo also consulted a more current 2003 translation by Robin Buss of the The Count of Monte Cristo, which helped to inspire both this work and the first sequel in this series, The Sultan of Monte Cristo. The most recent (2003) unabridged translation by Buss is indispensable to fully appreciate the original story. Those who have already had the pleasure of reading The Sultan of Monte Cristo will certainly appreciate the unique way in which the Holy Ghost Writer has expanded the original story without the help of anyone (except perhaps from the ghosts of Dumas and Doyle themselves). While The Count of Monte Cristo has been enjoyed by millions as a stand-alone work, this work is an even easier read of the original classic, as it has a condensed version of the original story retold in the voice of Sherlock Holmes. It also serves as a prequel to The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes incorporating Holmes as a character in Book III of this Special Edition.

Illustrated Enter Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.... "I'm quite interested to learn more about your adventures with Huck Finn," Dr. Watson began. "I've been thinking on it all day. What happened to the detective agency he founded under your guidance? Was it a success, as you expected?" "Well, my dear Watson, Huck didn't set up shop as a detective until he'd had a great many more adventures than the ones we've discussed, and until he had matured from an impatient boy to a determined young man. As you know, it takes a great deal of experience to become a good investigator. However, Huck and his friend Jim, who was a runaway slave if you recall, eventually made it out to the untamed American West and began a new chapter in their lives." "I remember that Huck had many adventures with his comrade, Tom Sawyer. Did Huck relate those stories to you during your years together at Yale?" "Quite colorfully," answered Sherlock. "Would you like to hear what he told me?" "That would be a great delight. Should we include this story in our literary posterity?" "Indubitably-we must tie all of these connecting stories together, especially as they may relate in any way to the Sovereign Order of Monte Cristo. Our records will be of great value to those in future generations." "I'm ready to write, then, and you are such a good storyteller that it will give me energy long into the night. Where should we begin?"

Not entirely, but for now yes, can you please continue the story presently, I was just wandering since you jumped into the local Styles case in more modern time not involving Monte Cristo. Very well then, let me give you the connection between Styles and The Secret Adversary adventure also involving my dear student Agatha Christe.

Yes, my dear Doctor, you will now learn that The Order is ever at work, and not only I am involved but The Count himself appears disguised in the story as a different 'count' from America.

"For so many years, passionate fans of The Count of Monte Cristo have suffered a loss upon finishing Alexandre Dumas' last words. It is a grieving of sorts that has long been unmitigable... until now. The mysterious Holy Ghost Writer has penned "The Sultan of Monte Cristo" as a direct continuance of the story readers have long struggled against leaving behind. The adventure-laden journeys of Edmond Dantes continues in (Dumas') newly-honed role as investigative reporter who publishes his (original) book as part of (this) story. New life is breathed into those characters we all knew and loved (or loved to hate) in the original Count of Monte Cristo tale (what can now, finally, be referred to as Book 1). Haydee, the infamous Villeforts, and even Countess G are lifted from the stalemate of our beloved story and given new life, and readers will also be introduced to a host of colorful new characters (like the memorable Raymee) whose lives, loves, and circumstance flow comprehensively and effortlessly through the entire narrative. Amazingly, the prose so closely matches the mood, tone, pacing, and richness of environment of Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo that this feels like the natural continuance of those lives. The sequel manages to introduce such a microscopic view into the full-flesh world our colorful characters engage in that readers can't help being sucked in. We cannot help but run breathlessly alongside them throughout the journey, to imagine the consequences between their words, to ponder on their insights and their woe-filled courses of action. We stand next to Mercedes as she lives and breathes; we get that rare glimpse into the future of the characters that Alexandre Dumas himself surely intended. Through well-defined and multilayered plotlines, the story's laser-point pacing, and rich character building, this work lends the quagmire of adventures, missteps, and danger-filled mysteries a guarantee of unforeseen, adventurous turns and cathartic "a-ha" insights. The Holy Ghost Writer seems a literary time-traveller: the swiftness with which he carries us straight into the 1800s is mind-boggling and a rare feat even in the best historical fiction writing. Excellent novel, and highly recommended " Peanut's review.

L'ordre souverain de Monte-Cristo est une suite au Comte de Monte-Cristo (Livre I), relate par la voix de Sherlock Holmes et le Sultan de Monte-Cristo (Livre II). Il comprend d'exaltantes nouvelles aventures, de nouveaux personnages et idees, amenant le lecteur au-dela des livres I et II et jusqu'au troisieme livre d'une nouvelle serie en pleine expansion, basee sur le classique. Ceux qui ont deja eu le plaisir de lire Le Sultan de Monte-Cristo apprecieront certainement la facon unique dont Holy Ghost Writer a developpe l'histoire originale, sans l'aide de quiconque (a l'exception peut-etre des fantomes de Dumas et Doyle).

C'etait triste. C'etait comme dire au revoir a un ami cher, en lisant les derniers mots, attendre et esperer du livre de 1243 pages, Le Comte de Monte-Cristo....
