The House of Silk: A Sherlock Holmes Novel

Product DetailsBy Anthony Horowitz

Fine art dealer Edward Carstairs visits Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, claiming that a man has followed him back from America and wants to kill him.  Holmes tracks the stranger, who is then found dead.  Unfortunately, this leads to more questions and dangers for Holmes.

This story has updated language, and makes Holmes seem a bit less robotic, which true Sherlock fans will hate.  I have always had trouble finishing the original Arthur Conan Doyle stories, so it was just fine by me... I didn't get lost in the verbiage.  It still has all the constant plot twists that make a Holmes book entertaining.
