This volume contains two stories involving murder. The first has Sherlock Holmes as the apparent murderer as far as Scotland Yard figures; with Doctor Watson helping resolve matters.In the second story a madman wants Doctor Watson to kill Holmes. Fun for all is involved, love them!!!

Another fine book from S.F. Bennett.
There are many Sherlock Holmes pastiche authors these days, but few of them truly capture the essence of Arthur Conan Doyle.
These two stories truly feel like they are part of the original cannon.
Not only are the characters 100% believable, but the writing is dead on accurate to the Victorian time period.
It feels as if a few more stories from the battered tin dispatch box have been uncovered and published for us.
If you are a fan of Sherlock Holmes, this will be another fantastic book to add to your collection.
