The Collected Papers of Sherlock Holmes - Volume 4

Mehr zum Buch

At the age of ten in the mid-1970s, David Marcum discovered Mr. Sherlock Holmes and realized that the original 60 adventures would never suffice. This sparked his lifelong ambition to write, leading him to contribute new stories to the Holmes legacy. Over the years, David collected and analyzed thousands of traditional Sherlockian pastiches. In 2008, during a layoff from his civil engineering job amid the Great Recession, he turned to Watson's Tin Dispatch Box and produced The Papers of Sherlock Holmes. Initially shelved, these first nine short stories were published in 2011 by a small press and later by MX Publishing in 2013, marking the start of his journey as a writer. Since then, David has edited over 60 volumes, primarily Sherlockian anthologies, and has written more than 80 adventures across various publications. These works are now being compiled, including previously unseen stories. The first five volumes feature the majority of David's Holmesian tales, with more to come in 2022. Join us as we revisit Baker Street and uncover more authentic adventures of Sherlock Holmes, as described by Dr. Watson as "the best and wisest . . . whom I have ever known." The game is afoot! Volume IV includes 19 new narratives.
