I’m obsessed with mystery, intrigue and conspiracies. So it makes perfect sense that I would love a new Sherlock Holmes book, right? A new collection of short mysteries, the Book of Extraordinary New Sherlock Holmes Stories is perfect for mystery and drama enthusiasts.
The anthology features 15 short stories from various mystery authors starring everyone’s favorite iconic, fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes, and his partner-in-mystery solving, Dr. Watson. Through the power of deduction Holmes uncovers murders, thefts and other salacious crimes. We see Holmes take on supernatural mysteries and hauntings in “The Case of the Cursed Angel Tears,” but all isn’t what it seems…and this story might just give you the chills. And in the “The Tell-Tale Tea Leaves,” Holmes is on a mission to take down a blackmailer who poses as a fortune teller who reads tea leaves in order to gain the trust of his victims.
Featuring prominent British and American literary writers including John Grant, Rose Biggins, Catherine Lundoff, and Mark Mower, each of the 15 stories in the anthology makes it nearly impossible for you to put the book down. While these are all new stories, the authors seem to effortlessly capture the nuance of the main characters and familiar locations that Sherlock Holmes fans have come to love.
Once a columnist for Time Out and The Guardian, editor Maxim Jakubowski also used to oversee London’s annual crime film and literary festival, Crime Scene. As an author, his work focuses on crime, erotica, and science fiction. He now writes, edits, and translates full-time in London. You can purchase Book of Extraordinary New Sherlock Holmes Stories on Amazon and any place you buy books.
