About this listen

A terrible scream rent the air. "Too late!" Holmes exclaimed, and started running towards the sound. I followed after, my pistol cocked at the ready. Had my dream mysteriously and horribly foreshadowed what was to happen? For here was Holmes again, rushing back towards me this time, while behind him, a great beast charged, body of a big cat, and the head... the head... Oh God, no!

From a country estate in Sussex to the murky docklands of Limehouse, from the Royal Albert Hall to a music hall in Shoreditch, from the respectably net-curtained suburbs of Beckenham and Hampstead to a brothel in Bow, Holmes and Watson go plumbing the depths of human depravity to unmask likely and unlikely villains.

The cast of colourful characters include a world famous Russian violinist, an intrepid female detective, Miss Dimples and her performing poodles, a diminutive maid named Fancy, a dead policeman on a platform at St Pancras station, as well as Wiggins, Jimsy and Bobs of the Baker Street Irregulars, and a pet leopard names Lola. Meet these and many more in eight new enthralling stories.

A entertaining and well crafted Holmes and Watson stories. I liked each one but was especially The Hunter and the fun little shorts at the end, a fun,way to name drop for another of Susan's series. The characters are accurate and described, the settings atmospheric and the mysteries inventive. Narration by Michael Langan is excellent. I received a complimentary copy of the audio and am leaving a honest voluntary review.

An excellent collection of super stories
