Announcing My Latest Publication
The Final Page of Baker Street will be published by MX Publishing on December 1, 2014. This "newly discovered" manuscript of Dr. Watson tells how the Chicago-born Raymond Chandler--in fact, a young student at Dulwich College at the start of the twentieth century--ends up working for Sherlock Holmes as a pageboy at 221B Baker Street where he is introduced to the world of crime-fighting and detection. Without knowing Chandler's future, Watson reveals how the young man's job as Billy the Page actually shaped Chandler’s literary career. As Watson so accurately reports, by helping Holmes solve two bloody murders, not to mention an early exposure to thievery, pornography and murder, Chandler learns the intrinsic appeal of the artistically-crafted murder mystery.
