Sherlock Holmes: The Golden Years

Sherlock Holmes lamented, “I fear that retirement will elude me.” It surely does in this five-story chronicle, Sherlock Holmes – The Golden Years. The saga begins with The Bonnie Bag of Bones, which leads the famous duo on a chase into the legendary mountains of Scotland. In Curse of the Black Feather, Holmes teams up with the Irregulars and a gypsy matriarch to expose a diabolical “baby-farming” enterprise. Their adventure continues through Maestro of Mysteries – with a deadly hunt under the streets of London – and The Cure that Kills – with a race across America and against the largest detective organization in the world. In the final story, The Kongo Nkis Spirit Train, Holmes and Watson travel to the Dark Continent to derail a “spirit train” that ensnares people’s spirits and enslaves their bodies. Kim Krisco follows in the footsteps of the master storyteller Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, adding five new and exciting, Sherlock Holmes adventures to the canon. He captures the voice and style of Doyle, as Holmes and Watson find themselves unraveling mysteries in, and around, pre-WWI London that, as Holmes puts it, “appears to have taken on an unsavory European influence.”
