'A lifelong Sherlock Holmes fan, Anthony Horowitz is the perfect choice to pen the first new official mystery and what a triumph it is. While retaining faithfully the style of the originals, Horowitz's lively prose makes this exciting story just right for a new generation of fans' -- Sarah Clarke, Bookseller's Choice THE BOOKSELLER 'For fans of the original tales, the game is afoot once more!' -- Ruth Hunter, Bookseller's Choice THE BOOKSELLER 'Orion has pulled a winner out of the bag by inviting Anthony Horowitz to pen a Sherlock Holmes novel. It has the feel of a Conan Doyle tale and only the jealous will fault this superb thriller' -- Patrick Neale, Bookseller's Choice THE BOOKSELLER 'a brilliant new Sherlock Holmes novel. The tone of voice is pitch perfect, the send of place and time spot on. I don't want to give too much away about the plot but there are clever twist and plenty of trademark Holmesian moments. I thoroughly enjoyed this' -- Sue Scholes, Bookseller's Choice THE BOOKSELLER 'a fantastic new Holmes mystery' -- Emma Giacon, Bookseller's Choice THE BOOKSELLER As far as I can see, Anthony Horowitz has done a thoroughly professional job and reading the novel felt to me like being in the company of an old and distinguished friend - or should that be two old friends?
