Studying Scarlet: A New Sherlock Holmes Mystery

Starlet O'Halloran has come to London looking for her wayward husband, Brett Cutler. She seeks help from Sherlock Holmes. He refuses the case until he learns that three men have already been murdered who were connected to Starlet and Brett.

But Brett has been busy fighting against the evil forces of a dangerous group of anarchists so this unlikely crew of Southerners and Londoners, and a couple of unexpected new characters, must work together to save the King and the Empire.

Fans of both Sherlock Holmes and Gone with the Wind will enjoy this unauthorized parody. It is the first in a series of New Sherlock Holmes Mysteries by Craig Stephen Copland.

New Sherlock Holmes Mysteries by Craig Stephen Copland are all written as if they were traditional stories by Arthur Conan Doyle. Each one is inspired by one of the stories in the original Canon. They are set in late Victorian England and use similar characters and elements of the plot as are found in the original story, but then take off into a completely new mystery. Eventually there will be a new mystery that corresponds with each of the original sixty stories. A new one will be released every month (usually).

Readers who are fans of the original Sherlock Holmes stories will enjoy meeting up again with the Sherlock and Watson they know and love.
