About the Book

'Horowitz has captured Holmes Heaven' THE TIMES

THE HOUSE OF SILK was the first official new Sherlock Holmes mystery and a SUNDAY TIMES bestseller from the author of MAGPIE MURDERS

THE GAME'S AFOOT . . .

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. He begs Holmes for help, telling the unnerving story of a scar-faced man with piercing eyes who has stalked him in recent weeks.

Intrigued, 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 and the mysterious 'House of Silk' . . .

Review :
Perfectly paced, entirely unpredictable, edge-of-seat exciting and a total joy from start to finish - SUNDAY EXPRESS

An exciting, well-crafted novel - SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

It seems improbable, if not impossible, but it's true! Holmes is back at his best - INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY

There is a suitably baffling mystery and the great detective is on top form. It's very good; dare I say as good as the original? - LITERARY REVIEW

THE HOUSE OF SILK is superb - DAILY TELEGRAPH

Enthusiastically replicating the spirit, style, suspense and atmosphere of Conan Doyle's stories, this skilfully crafted homage is an irresistible read - THE SUNDAY TIMES

Horowitz has captured Holmes Heaven - THE TIMES

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
