A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

In May of 2014 the Sherlock Holmes Society of Canada - better known as The Bootmakers (www.torontobootmakers.com) - announced a contest for a new Sherlock Holmes story. Although he had no experience writing fiction, the author submitted a short Sherlock Holmes mystery and was blessed to be declared one of the winners. Thus inspired, he has continued to write new Sherlock Holmes Mysteries since. He is on a mission now to write sixty new Sherlock Holmes mysteries - one inspired by each story in the original canon. In real life he writes about and serves as a consultant for political campaigns in Canada and the USA (www.ConservativeGrowth.net), but would abandon that pursuit if he could possibly earn a decent living writing about Sherlock Holmes. He currently writes from Toronto, Tokyo, and Manhattan.
