I am an Award-Winning author for Sherlock Holmes Books. Recipient of the Arthur Conan Doyle Society’s Award for Best Fiction. My books brim with imagination and a news reporter’s excitement for 19th-Century history. I write about heroes and heroines and the art of true justice. Human heroes with human abilities. Genius is a human ability. Friendship is a human ability. Love is a human ability. Though murder mysteries, my unconventionally historic detective novels are full of hope and the bonhomie of friendship. And my Sherlock is like no other. FIVE MILES OF COUNTRY is my third novel in the Rachel Holmes series. Holmes and Watson are called to Thomas Edison’s ‘Imagination Factory’ to solve the murder of a Vaudeville danseuse in the world’s first motion picture studio, while Mrs Irene Adler-Holmes battles segregation and theatre ghosts on Broadway. THESE SCATTERED HOUSES, in Sherlock Holmes’s own voice, chronicles a unique addition to his ‘Great Hiatus’ travels. In REMARKABLE POWER OF STIMULUS, Holmes finds London awash in murders, anarchists threatening Paris, and the return of Irene Adler. Under surveillance by Moriarty’s henchmen, Holmes arrives in Baker Street knowing he will find Watson’s friendship and unerring aim are as dependable as the British Rail. THE KEYS OF DEATH with a Foreword by Mattias Boström, is a genesis story of the young occupants of No. 221B Baker Street and how together they solve Mr Hudson’s murder. THESE SCATTERED HOUSES, was recently translated into Italian by Mondadori Publishing. A member of The Sherlock Holmes Society of London, The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes, The John H. Watson Society, The ACD Society, The Society of Authors, and Sisters in Crime.
