THE HOUSE OF SILK by Anthony Horowitz

'This skillfully crafted homage to Conan Doyle is so enjoyable that you're sorry when it fades away' The Sunday Times

It is November 1890 and London is gripped by a merciless winter. Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson are enjoying tea by the fire when an agitated gentleman arrives unannounced at 221b Baker Street, begging Holmes for help. Intrigued by the man's tale, Holmes and Watson find themselves swiftly drawn into a series of puzzling and sinister events, stretching from the gas-lit streets of London to the teeming criminal underworld of Boston.

In this first new mystery endorsed by the Conan Doyle estate, Sherlock Holmes is back with all the nuance, pace and powers of deduction that make him the world's greatest and most celebrated detective..
