This non-canon book takes place AFTER "The Empty House" return of Holmes, but before the general public is aware of his return. So, that's an interesting take but nothing really comes of it.
There's some mixing of fictional characters (the remnants of the Moriarty gang) with real life historical figures (the Rockefellers, JP Morgan, etc.) which is sort of fun.
I really feel like this is a great start, but it just never arrives to any place truly intriguing. There's not really a mystery here... we know who the bad guys are, we pretty much know where and when they're going to strike and then it's just a matter of stopping them... pretty standard stuff. Still, a Kindle deal at $3.99.
A nice try by Charles Veley.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI hope you are well. I wanted to share a personal experience and a referral that may be helpful to anyone exploring alternative or herbal treatment options. In August 2010 I was diagnosed with brain cancer and my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. A close friend recommended Dr. Jekawo, a traditional herbal practitioner in West Africa, and gave me his contact information.
I contacted Dr. Jekawo and he provided a guarantee that his herbal medicine would cure my brain cancer, my wife’s breast cancer, and herpes completely. He asked for payment to prepare the herbal medicines, which I paid. Within seven working days he shipped the herbal medicines and gave us instructions to take them for 21 days. We followed his instructions exactly, and after completing the 21-day course both my wife and I experienced a complete resolution of our symptoms. Because of our experience, I want to recommend Dr. Jekawo to others seeking help for cancer, herpes, diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, COPD, hepatitis, or similar conditions.
If you would like to contact him directly, his email address is [www.drjekawo.com](drjekawo@gmail.com
