Sealed away from public view more than a century at the instruction of their author, Dr. John Watson, these three cases of Sherlock Holmes are available here for the first time. Like the earlier volume in this series, each reveals the role Holmes and Watson played in investigating crimes involving actual historical events and prominent personages.

"A Grotesquery in Limehouse" explores Holmes' involvement in solving the mutilation and murder of a Belgian businessman near the London docks, a crime that is linked to the despicable role of King Leopold II in brutally exploiting the people and resources of the Belgian Congo.

"The Disappearances at the Flannan Light" recounts Holmes' role in solving a century and a quarter long mystery concerning what befell the three keeps who vanished without a trace from the remote Scottish Flannan Lighthouse on the cusp of the twentieth century.

"The Case of the Shattered Propeller" plunges Holmes and Watson into the inquiry into the disastrous crash of the Wright Flyer during its military trial flight in Fort Myer, Virginia, in 1908, revealing long-concealed aspects of this tragic moment in aviation history.

These stories have been prepared for public release by John Lawrence, who has edited numerous historic Holmes adventures in the volumes of the MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Adventures, as well as the novel, "Sherlock Holmes and the Affair at Mayerling Lodge". He worked for 38 years in the U.S. House of Representatives and is a history Ph.D. and professor living in Washington D.C. and Santa Fe, New Mexico. His non-fiction works include Arc of Power: Inside the Speakership of Nancy Pelosi, and Class of '74: Congress After Watergate and the Roots of Partisanship.

I enjoyed all three of these Holmes mysteries, the third adventure where they meet Orville Wright in particular. I enjoy pastiche works that place Holmes into the genre of historical fiction and this is a great collection that features some great narration.

I thought these stories were very good. I found the first one heart-wrenching. Although I didn't really want to know any more about them, I had to look up information regarding King Leopold and the Congo after reading this story.

The second story about the lighthouse was very interesting, and not how I thought it would turn out. The atmosphere is described so well, it seems terribly stark and spooky.

The third story about the Wright brothers was also very interesting, and I had to look up some more information after listening. Mr. Lawrence seems to write stories that lead to more investigation!

The three stories here were very well researched, but didn’t feel quite authentic to me. I enjoyed them, but could not suspend my disbelief, and imagine them to truly be lost tales.

As for the reader, he provided mostly distinct voices for each character, but I was not crazy about his Holmes. Also, he misread and mispronounced enough words to be noticeable.

Still and all, an amusing way to spend a few hours in Baker Street.

Almost, but not quite right

After listening to the woke I introduction that could have been written by the DNC - understand why you had to give the book away for free.
Shame for the authors who may have written good stories.

Horrible Couldn’t get past the politically correct, whiny, “woke” introduction.
