Overview

Eddie Maguire's Sherlock Holmes and the Bolshevik Plot follows on immediately after the conclusion of Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Mission, in which our two heros find themselves in Italy where it is clear that the future of Europe and its leaders are in imminent danger from a shadowy mastermind. There are rumours that the Tsar of Russia has fallen ill, and that this may be part of a plot against the crown heads of Europe. Holmes and Watson must make their way as fast as possible from Brindisi to St. Petersburg. There will be much danger along the way as they travel by sea, train, river boat and horseback through the Balkans with their unknown adversary hot on their heels. History tells us that the Tsar and his family were subjected to poisoning, and also that they will survive on this occasion. However, certain questions remain unanswered. Was the poisoning part of a Bolshevik plot? What role did Holmes play in saving the Tsar? Who was the 'shadowy mastermind' following Holmes and Watson? Answers to all these questions can be found in Eddie Maguire's exciting final novel Sherlock Holmes and the Bolshevik Plot.

Author Information

Eddie Maguire was born in 1950 and turned his hand to writing and publishing in the late 1980s after falling prey to the scourge of disability (in body if not mind and spirit). At first he produced a series of five short stories that were later followed by novel length works. Eddie has always been fascinated by the writings of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and historical research, and it is therefore not surprising to find that certain historical figures feature in his Sherlock Holmes adventures with the greatest care being given to recreating the atmosphere and characters of the era. If proof were needed no less than Freddie Trueman, the noted cricket expert, said of Eddie's A Death at the Cricket that 'This story really brings to life the big house cricket matches of the 19th century'.Eddie lived in Somerset with his wife Mary and their six cats.
