Send out the word with the Irregulars.  I'll speak to Mycroft at the Diogenes Club (although I doubt he will show).

 

Pardon me will I get some more Persian tobacco for my slipper.

For Holmes fans, there is a recent series of novels by an author - Laurie R. King - that are "undiscovered" Sherlock adventures.

 

The author claims - fictionally - to have receieved a tin chest full of oddities, including old postcards, a string of emeralds, and a number of maunscripts by a Mary Russell, who claimed to meet Holmes in his later days, and the adventures continued.

 

There are seven of them published to date - the first one being "The Beekeeper's Assistant", published in 1994. They have been best-sellers.

 

If you are a fan of Doyle, or others like Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, Bruce Alexander, Anne Perry and others that write or wrote clever mysteries sited in the Victorian Age or the '20's - '30's, I think you would enjoy them.

 

There is also 3 books by a fellow named Larry Millett, who wrote 3 books fictionalizing Holmes coming to the States and solving crimes in the Minnisota area. They are pretty good reads.
