About this listen

The Confidential Files of John H. Watson collection contains the following titles: Sherlock Holmes and the Giant Sumatran Rat, Sherlock Holmes and the Father of Lies, Sherlock Holmes and the Nefarious Seafarers, Sherlock Holmes and the Time Machine

In The GIANT SUMATRAN RAT, Sherlock and Watson will go on a fast-paced adventure that takes them from the dregs of London to its noble heights. The two friends will travel from Bedlam, the hospital for the insane, to stately Windsor Park.

FATHER OF LIES is the second in this exciting series. When Sherlock's brother Mycroft disappears, Sherlock Holmes is drawn into the most thrilling case of his career, one that puts his powers to the test as he goes up against the Father of Lies, the Lord of Evil himself. The stakes couldn't be higher as Holmes and Watson are sent by leaders all over the globe to battle for the very survival of mankind.

In NEFARIOUS SEAFARERS Holmes and Watson reluctantly search for a missing sailor…and stumble on a sinister plan to embarrass and de-throne Queen Victoria. The two friends must work together as never before, in an adventure that takes them under the seas on a wild and harrowing chase to unravel a deadly mystery.

By TIME MACHINE, Sherlock Holmes and his friend, Dr. John Watson, are no strangers to danger—but a visitor’s claim that they are to be the targets of an assassin is unsettling. Moreover, the man says he has created a time machine that has whisked him away to the future. Astonishing! Holmes turns to his brother for help, only to learn that Mycroft Holmes might actually be behind this dastardly plot. Is it possible that Holmes’s own brother is a traitor to the realm? Mycroft has all the resources of the British Empire at his disposal, while Holmes has only Watson and his merry band of Irregulars, street urchins he’s trained to work as spies. How can Holmes possibly hope to thwart his brother’s superior resources? He can and he must.

Not Sherlock Holmes

Although the writing is proficient and the stories flow, in my honest opinion these depictions of our beloved iconic characters do not live up to the standards set by Mr. Doyle. I'll keep it brief but Watson's passive aggressiveness and Holmes's laconic attitude and lack of actual deducing made them feel foreign to me. They both incessantly pontificate during times when their faculties would be better served tackling the case. I doubt Holmes would have a soapbox moment, critiquing the ills of society, when a keen study of the crime scene would surely hold his passions. While I know Holmes had his momentary revelries, these attempts at triggering such trysts with catharsis were jarring and out of place. I've read and listened to many pastiches, and this one just didn't resonate with me.
