Thirteen authors, including Narrelle M. Harris, Jody Lynn Nye, and
Sarah Stegall, come together in the second edition of Baker Street
Irregulars to pen an original collection of short stories on the
iconic and timeless character, Sherlock Holmes. In this new edition
of Baker Street Irregulars, a cast of authors riff on the iconic
figure of Sherlock Holmes in over a dozen captivating new ways. In
Keith DeCandido's "Six Red Dragons," Sherlock is a young girl in
modern New York City. In Sarah Stegall's "Papyrus," Sherlock is a
female librarian in ancient Egypt. In Daniel M. Kimmel's
mesmerizing "A Scandal in Chelm," Sherlock is a rabbi. Derek Beebe
sends Sherlock to the moon, while Mike Strauss, in "The Adventure
of the Double Sized Final Issue," casts him as a comic book
character. The backdrops run the gamut from a grade school
classroom to Jupiter, from rural, post-Civil War to an alien
spaceship. While preserving the timeless charm and intrigue of
Sherlock Holmes, these authors pen stories of the world's greatest
detective as you've never seen him before.

Private investigator Claire Turnbull meets the ghost of Old West
lawman Wyatt Earp over a cooling corpse in San Francisco, and is
dismayed to discover that only she can see or hear him.
Reluctantly, she teams with the ghost to solve a murder mystery

a 150-year-old ship's log? Was it just another in a long string of
cons, or is there really a hoard of gold hidden in San Francisco?
The hunt takes Claire and Wyatt from the high rises of the modern
city into a murky past buried under San Francisco.
