New Cases of Sherlock Holmes
An unidentified woman is found dead with a set of false teeth mysteriously gripped in her hand.
A young tutor finds himself accused of a bizarre art theft.
A Russian refugee in hiding is helped by Watson's wife Mary, and now Mary has disappeared.
In these ten stories, Shaw reveals to us a mercurial and complex Holmes, a conflicted Watson, and a relationship between the two that is nuanced and psychologically rich. Here is a Sherlock Holmes you will true to form yet renewed; by turns infuriating and charming. Shaw suggests issues that resonate with a contemporary reader while deftly avoiding piety. In this debut collection, you will discover wry humour, Victorian pathos and of course, hansom cabs in a London fog.

Excellent stories!
I didn't care to read about those few moments of Watson's whining and self-pity over Holmes' sharp tongue. But those were few and easily ignored. Otherwise, these stories are captivating and creative, well worth reading.
