The Early Case Files of Sherlock Holmes

by Liese Sherwood-Fabre

GENRE: Historical mystery

 

BLURB:

 

A murdered midwife. A body in the stable. At the age of thirteen, Sherlock Holmes is thrust into his first two cases. At stake: the lives of his own family.

 

Before Sherlock Holmes met Dr. Watson in 1895, he had already developed his skills as the world's most famous consulting detective. Arthur Conan Doyle provided little information about his detective's formative years or how he created his singular profession. These first two books in The Early Case Files of Sherlock Holmes series reveal how Sherlock's past shaped the sleuth he became.

 

Faced with the possibility of losing his mother to the gallows for a murder she did not commit, Sherlock must uncover the true killer before she hangs in The Adventure of the Murdered Midwife.

 

In Case Two, unexpected guests and a murder arrive in time for the family's Christmas celebrations. For the safety of his family, Sherlock is compelled once again to bring the perpetrator to justice in The Adventure of the Murdered Gypsy.

 

Fans of Sherlock Holmes and traditional historical British detective mysteries will love The Early Case Files of Sherlock Holmes as a welcomed addition to the originals.

Excerpt Two:

 

To distract myself, I stared out the window at the passing countryside and summoned the nerve to ask Mycroft what had occupied me for the past several hours. “What exactly happened to Mother? I know she’s not dead, but I have no information beyond that. Is she sick? Dying?”

 

“She’s fine.”

 

“Someone’s not, or we wouldn’t be called home.”

 

No reply.

 

“I’m going to find out. Wouldn’t it be better for me to learn it from you now, than when we arrive at Underbyrne?”

 

Through his cheese sandwich, he said, “You want to know, you little twit? Here it is. Mother’s in gaol, accused of murder.”

 

The force with which this pronouncement hit me was the same as if he’d given me a blow to the stomach. The queasiness I’d battled since my fight with Fitzsimmons returned with a vengeance. Bile surged into my throat. The compartment closed around me, and my deepest desire was to flee. I stood, realized there was truly nowhere to go, and dropped back down into my seat.

 

“Put your head between your legs.”

 

I glanced at Mycroft, but his words sounded as if I were under water.

 

“Put your head between your legs.”

 

When I remained immobile, he grabbed me by the hair and bent me over.

 

“Breathe,” he said.

 

After several gulps of air, my hearing improved, and my heartbeat slowed. “You can let go now.”

 

He sat back, and I raised my head. “Mother? Wha— How?”

 

“I don’t know all the particulars. I gleaned it from my own analysis of the information in the papers.”
