Studying Scarlet: A New Sherlock Holmes Mystery

Hey Sherlockians: The first day of every month is New Sherlock Day. All New Sherlock Holmes Mysteries ebooks on Kindle will go on sale for 99 cents for one day only. Watch for it at the start of each month. STUDYING SCARLET: A strikingly beautiful mature woman from The South, who will remind the reader of Scarlett Oâ€™Hara but who, for copyright reasons, cannot actually be her, has come to London in search of her estranged husband, who will remind readers of Rhett Butler, but who â€¦ the same. Starlet Oâ€™Halleran had made contact with three of Brett Cutlerâ€™s associates. A few days later all three are dead, garroted by a shadowy group of anarchists. In need of help she enters 221B Baker Street and hires the worldâ€™s greatest detective. She is accompanied by an elderly, not-petite African American woman who will remind readers of â€¦ well, you know. A younger generation of Oâ€™Halleran/Cutlers join in the adventure. Like their parents they are physically gorgeous, athletic, courageous, excellent horse riders, and, fortunately, strong swimmers. Together with Holmes and Watson, they ride madly across southern England trying to prevent a disastrous assassination and save the Empire. All the traditional Holmesian characters are present and in their appropriate roles. Mrs. Watson puts up with and readily looks after Holmes. Dr. Watson is always by his side and narrates the story. Inspector Lestrade, typically doubts Holmes deductions and then has to join in the hot pursuit. Several odd characters, just as you would expect in the London of 1902, enter and exit and help and hinder. Fans of Sherlock Holmes will enjoy a new adventure that closely follows the narratives, characters, setting, and language of the Canon. Fans of Gone with the Wind will love this new parody/pastiche and the many tributes to the great saga of the antebellum age. Buy it now, read it, and enjoy your much loved characters yet again. And if are neither a devoted Sherlockian nor a lover of GWTW, and do not adore either Margaret Mitchell or Arthur Conan Doyle, well then, frankly, my dear â€¦
