This modern and quirky spin-off of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic is a must read. Set in Dublin Ireland, Book One covers the curious story of Dr. Watson, a doctor who was wounded and lost his leg and his funds. In an effort to keep financially afloat, he becomes a caretaker for a Ms. Sharlock Holmes, a single mum with Aspergers and hypoglycemia. Watson is shocked to realize that Ms. Holmes has many strange hobbies as well as brilliant obsessions. She remains shrouded in mystery, and often disappears to odd places. With a few clues from her cook and lifelong friend, Omar, Watson soon realizes that the more he knows about the odd life of Ms. Sharlock Holmes, the less he can deduce as to her identity. However, an odd misplaced insult leads to his discovery that Ms. Holmes is an incredible detective. This begins a whirlwind journey filled mishap, mystery, mayhem, and many misadventures with Ms. Sharlock Holmes. This start to an incredible series is an essential addition to any Sherlockian's / Holmesian's library. The decision is elementary.

Wonderful narrative and pictures
A wonderful upgrade from the normal graphic novel. This has a wonderful narrative and pictures that are included are superb. It tell how Watson injured whilst working overseas has to try to find a job that whilst light will earn him enough to survive. He is told of a position with Holmes. A widow with a young child that needs adult supervision as she has bouts of fainting. Whilst not life threatening it is too much to place on a 5 year old shoulders. As they get to know each others foibles, he discovers how she got into the PI business.
Wonderful characters from the super organised, highly intelligent but straight talking Holmes to the worldly, charming little girl.
Terrific
