This exciting collection of short stories follows literature’s favourite detective, Sherlock Holmes, as he investigates three complex cases of missing jewels. These three tales will captivate fans of detective fiction and intrigue readers with their intricate plots and mysterious twists. In ‘The Beryl Coronet’ (1892), a banker is holding a small crown as collateral. When three of the crown’s beryls vanish, seemingly at his own son’s hand, the banker calls on Holmes to clear his family’s name and recover the missing jewels. ‘The Six Napoleons’ (1904) sees a series of break-ins resulting in the theft and destruction of several plaster busts of Napoleon. Could there be a radical Napoleon hater on the loose, or is there a more sinister scheme behind the robberies? Finally, in ‘The Mazarin Stone’ (1921), Holmes has been tracking and following a diamond thief, but in protecting the valuable jewel, the master detective might have placed his life in the centre of a dark and dangerous plot. With his trademark intellect and attention to detail, Join Holmes as he navigates three complex webs of suspects and motives to uncover the truth behind these missing jewels. This new collection from Read & Co. Books features the original illustrations by Sidney Paget and a specially commissioned introduction.

In a stunning follow-up to the acclaimed In the Company of Sherlock Holmes, Laurie R. King and Leslie S. Klinger present a brand-new anthology of stories inspired by the Arthur Conan Doyle canon. Echoes of Sherlock Holmes puts forth the question: What happens when great writers/creators who are not known as Sherlock Holmes devotees admit to being inspired by Conan Doyle stories? While some of these talented authors are highly-regarded mystery writers, others are best known for their work in the fields of fantasy or science fiction. All of them, however, share a great admiration for Arthur Conan Doyle and his greatest creations, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. Some stories tell of Holmes himself (in Victorian Baker Street or modern New York, in various guises or a different gender), while others explore various Conan Doyle characters. Although not a formal collection of new Holmes stories (though some do fit that mold), these tales are inspired by the Conan Doyle canon. The results are breathtaking—for long-time fans of Holmes and Watson, for readers new to Doyle’s writing, and for all readers who love exceptional storytelling. Featuring stories by Tasha Alexander, Cory Doctorow, Hallie Ephron, Meg Gardiner, William Kent Krueger, Jonathan Maberry, Catriona McPherson, David Morrell, Anne Perry, Hank Phillippi Ryan, and more.
