“Don’t miss out on The Keys of Death!!”
The Keys of Death is Ms. Altabef’s third Sherlock Holmes novel and I believe it’s her best one yet!! This adventure takes place during the early years of Sherlock Holmes, Watson and Mrs. Hudson’s relationship. It is a refreshing change to experience them as young and vulnerable and it adds to the emotional depth of this exciting mystery. Don’t miss out on The Keys of Death!!
Gretchen Altabef is an MX author of Sherlock Holmes novels. Mondadori Publishing has contracted to translate her novels into Italian. Ms. Altabef strives to emulate Dr. John Watson’s and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s literary style. The first, These Scattered Houses, is in Holmes’ own voice and resourcefully chronicles the last two months of his ‘great hiatus’. The second in the series is, Remarkable Power of Stimulus. After 3 years away, Holmes finds London awash in murders, No. 221B under siege, anarchists threatening Paris, and the return of Irene Adler. Fully aware he is being watched by Moriarty’s men, Holmes steps out of the cab into Baker Street knowing he will find Watson’s friendship and unerring aim are as dependable as the British Rail. THE KEYS OF DEATH is the genesis story of No. 221B Baker Street.
