Table of ContentsReviews'This exciting tale follows the fictional adventures of a young Arthur Conan Doyle (author of the Sherlock Holmes books) & his mate Ham. When graves are robbed all over Edinburgh with the bodies being abandoned later he deduces that the crooks must be after something else the graves might contain. With several nods to the original stories this is a hugely enjoyable crime mystery which this huge Holmes fan absolutely loved.' -- Lara Mieduniecki, Blackwell's 'I LOVED IT! As a fan of the original Sherlock Holmes books I thought the characterisation of these books were spot on! ... Yet at the same time they didn't lose their own identity and had their own character quirks. There are also lots of other nods to the original tales which both serves to please any Holmes fan but does not take away from the books individuality and enjoyment so any Holmes novice would be able to enjoy them for their own. A perfect combination of a classic mystery and a new adventure.' -- Sharleen Creasey, Seven Stories 'This exciting tale follows the fictional adventures of a young Arthur Conan Doyle (author of the Sherlock Holmes books) & his mate Ham.

I'm particularly looking forward to getting my son to read this so we can talk about the story. It was just very refreshing to be able to find something for my son that he can read which is both fun and has an educational tone to it by teaching kids to be more observant.' -- Artistic Bent blog Author InformationRobert J.
