"The Notable Musician": Famous American bandleader John Phillip Sousa has an urgent case for the great detective to solve before he gives a command performance.

Critic reviews

"Roger Riccard is an extremely good pastiche writer. Personally, I think the best since the late Val Andrews passed over Reichenbach." (Joel Senter, publisher of the Sherlockian E-Times)

Decent storylines

I found this pastiche entertaining but the storylines not as engaging as other books in the series.

A decent facsimile of Holmes

The reader has a great voice, and gives great vocal characterizations. It is always clear who is speaking. He very rarely mispronounces words, which further endears him to me.

Meanwhile, the author did a credible job of recreating tales of Holmes and Watson. I will definitely enjoy listening to more stories from these two.
