The Further Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes - Volume 2

The Further Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes #2

by Denis O. Smith

From the cold-blooded murder of a man well known in London's Bohemian society, to a sinister tradition in an old Tudor manor-house, these six cases, from the early years of Holmes's career in the 1880s, present a singular collection of mysteries for the world's first consulting detective to resolve. Who is it that bangs on the front door of Mr Lidington's isolated cottage in the dead of night? Why does Henry Barton's job interview proceed in such a surprising and unpredictable way? What is the secret of the man from Chile and his strange, silent wife? Sherlock Holmes must find the answers to these and many other puzzling questions if he is to bring these cases to a successful conclusion.

About the author

In the 1980s I published five Sherlock Holmes short stories in individual booklets: The Purple Hand, The Unseen Traveller, The Zodiac Plate, The Secret of Shoreswood Hall and The Christmas Visitor.
In the 1990s, these stories were collected, with the addition of one new story, The Green Umbrella, as the first two volumes of The Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes. Two further volumes of The Chronicles followed, containing a further eight stories.
In 2014 and 2016, two volumes of The Lost Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes were published, containing a mixture of new stories and older stories which had appeared over the years in magazines, anthologies etc.
Now, forthcoming in December 2016, is my first Sherlock Holmes novel, The Riddle of Foxwood Grange.

AUDIOBOOK REVIEW

Another great audio of Sherlock Holmes stories beautifully narrated by Kevin E Green. If you love Sherlock Holmes this is the audio for you and once again is split info separate chapters for each story so you can dip in and out of them.

[Bethany Gordon · Rating 4 out of 5]

The 2nd in a collection of short stories featuring Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Another varied collection of stories of a really great length to listen to them one at a time. Excellent narration which brought to life the stories and characters. I really enjoyed these short stories.
