Hailing from Bedford, in the South East of England, Matthew Simmonds has been a confirmed devotee of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's most famous creation since first watching Jeremy Brett's incomparable portrayal of the world's first consulting detective, on a Tuesday evening in April, 1984, while curled up on the sofa with his father.

He has written numerous short stories, and his first novel, "Sherlock Holmes: The Adventure of The Pigtail Twist" was published in 2018. A sequel is nearly complete, which he hopes to publish in the near future.

Matthew currently co-owns Harrison & Simmonds, the fifth-generation family business, a renowned County tobacconist, pipe and gift shop on Bedford High Street.

The Mystery of Cranfield Court – A (little) Local Holmesian Mystery Solved

“There’s a man here asking if he can speak to the Conan Doyle expert,” announced my cousin, leaning into my office.

“Well, I would certainly not call myself an expert, but I am happy to have a chat with a fellow Conan Doyle enthusiast,” I replied, rising from my chair, grateful for an excuse to stretch my legs.
