About the Book
The epilogue… It’s been three years since the “Search for Excalibur” affair. Holmes and Watson were retired and glad to be so. But now an old threat returns to bring them together again. A werewolf has been spotted in London. It seems impossible that it could be so, but the evidence is undeniable. With their wives at their sides, they join forces with Chief Inspector Charles Whittington of Scotland Yard and a friendly band of Gypsies to take on the beast that has somehow resurrected from the past. The sword, Excalibur, reappears and becomes a bargaining chip in this most unusual case. Holmes and Watson are at their wits end, moving from place to place in the city to uncover the clues that will lead them to the creature. But then they discover that just finding the werewolf is not the answer to all their problems. Their old friend, Thadeus Finn, is pulled into the fray as well. He is a brilliant scientist, but can he help Holmes and Watson track down the beast? Mary Holmes and Emily Watson are forced to take up arms in order to protect themselves while their husbands are away. Finally, a cryptic message is left that causes Holmes to realize that he and his companions must become the bait that will ultimately draw the creature out. Only then, can they hope to destroy the beast and set London and themselves free from its dreadful threat. All will be revealed in, Sherlock Holmes and the Werewolf of London. It’s Holmes and Watson, at their best, during the worst, as you have never known them before.
