About the Book

The first full-length novel in the new continuation sequel, 'The Revival of Sherlock Holmes' - authorised by The Conan Doyle Estate Ltd. It is Christmas Eve, 1889: Sherlock Holmes becomes totally immersed in a case of the very greatest gravity when the senior partner and master engraver of London's most eminent security printer begs his aid in investigating a crime which threatens to break The Bank of England and devastate the economy of Great Britain. In the largest and most audacious robbery in British banking history, the newly-engraved printing plates for the next run of official Bank of England 10 notes have been stolen, together with a vast supply of the special water-marked banknote paper - and from the outset of the case, there appear to be no clues as to the identity of the thieves. The currency of the realm is in dire peril... The Chief Cashier of The Bank of England believes he has no option but to pay the stunning six-figure ransom demanded for their return, but Sherlock Holmes thinks otherwise... The most illustrious consulting detective in Europe has a mere five days to unravel the mystery, recover the plates and paper, and save the nation's economy from financial catastrophe - or pay the staggering ransom. But there will be grim and perilous consequences; the investigation will draw Holmes and Watson deep into the vilest and most perilous rookeries of 19th century London, horrific and brutal murder will be done and in the process of the investigation Sherlock Holmes will make an implacable, murderous and life-long enemy who will pursue him to the end of his days to wreak his revenge...

About the Author :
Ross Husband is a retired film director, marketing and PR consultant, scholar of the English language and etymology, member of The Society of Authors, The Sherlock Holmes Society of London and The Sherlock Holmes Social Network; he lives with Glenys, his partner, in Norfolk, East Anglia, England, and San Agustin, Gran Canaria. With some forty years' experience of writing for technical and professional journals, newspapers and documentary films, this is his first work of fiction. Based on a deep affection from childhood for the legendary characters of Sherlock Holmes and his loyal colleague Doctor John Watson, this debut novel is the first of six stories comprising an officially authorized continuation series - The Revival of Sherlock Holmes - offered as a tribute to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and the immortal characters he created. "These stories do not attempt to update, alter, or lampoon the original genre, which in my view requires no improvement. Conan Doyle's format is sound," he comments. Unlike many other Sherlock Holmes pastiches, these stories are authorised and approved under contract in the USA by Conan Doyle Estate Ltd, www.conandoyleestate.co.uk and by Jonathan Clowes in the UK and European Union countries. They are respectfully offered to those many devotees of Conan Doyle's original canon of work who perhaps yearn for some more in the same vein - unadorned, unmodernized, vintage Sherlock Holmes.
