[ if you purchased "A Sherlock Holmes Triology" we suggest you simply purchase "The Adventure of the Chess Messages." Doing so will give you the all the stories in this book.] This is a collection of traditional Sherlock Holmes Pastiches in the style of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The first story in this collection, "The Adventure of Miss Stephanie Ray" was the lead story in the collection "The Non-Canonical Sherlock Holmes," which was published in 1975 when permission was needed from the Doyle estate. Three additional stories are The Adventure of the Monstrous Medium, The Adventure of the Shanghaied Sailor, and The Adventure of the Chess Messages. All are written to be as close to the original stories in theme, characterization and entertainment value.
