"I suppose, Watson, we must look upon you as a man of letters," said Mr Sherlock Holmes. "How do you define the word singular?" "Curious - extraordinary," I suggested. He shook his head at my definition. "There is surely something more than that," said he, "some underlying suggestion of the weird, the strange, the odd." When first published in 2003 Sherlock Magazine called the original edition "One of the best collections of Holmes pastiches for some time" and the Newsletter of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London said "Mr Stockwell clearly knows his period and he has an engagingly inventive imagination." This new expanded edition contains three additional new stories making a total of seventeen unusual, bizarre and thoroughly intriguing tales written in the classic manner. Why does a man wear a yellow top hat to feed the pigeons in Trafalgar Square? Why should a maiden lady be terrified at receiving a jigsaw piece by piece? How can a cyclist disappear in the snow without leaving any traces? The answers to these and many other enigmas are revealed by the master sleuth in this collection of seventeen new stories written in the authentic style as narrated by Dr Watson.
