Story
Sherlock Holmes is a Yorkshireman, born and brought up on the North York Moors, but he spent much of his life at 221B Baker Street in London. He is more than a character from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's imagination. For many thousands of followers, he still lives in their minds through films, television, stage and radio plays, and written stories. Ever since Holmes first appeared in print, people have used the stories, together with knowledge of the culture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, to speculate about his life. They wanted more than the 60 stories in the Canon.

Fusing together the two events are the recollections of Rita Krakowski, Holocaust survivor, condemned as a Nazi collaborator and fugitive from justice. Memories are branded into her soul like the number on her forearm, revelations with far-reaching international and financial implications. For private investigators Chas Broadhurst and René Marchal, what appears to be a straight-forward assignment rapidly becomes a deadly race against time to find the woman before it is too late and to expose a cover-up 70 years in the making.

There is a persistent and incorrect idea, reinforced by countless film misrepresentations, that Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson were always staid and dull British chaps of middle years (or older), with Holmes a spry, cranky, and impatient eccentric, and Watson a white-haired and portly Boobus Brittanicus, a la Nigel Bruce. Students of the true and Canonical Sherlock Holmes know this to be a falsehood.

It is 1890, and in the days before Christmas, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson are visited at Baker Street by a new client. Eve Allerthorpe, eldest daughter of a grand but somewhat eccentric Yorkshire-based dynasty, is greatly distressed, as she believes she is being haunted by a demonic Christmas spirit. Her late mother told her terrifying tales of the sinister Black Thurrick, and Eve is sure that she has seen the creature from her bedroom window. What is more, she has begun to receive mysterious parcels of birch twigs, the Black Thurrick’s calling card.

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are no strangers to peculiar cases. Be it the dilemma of an Indian princess on the run, perfectly healthy people dropping dead as divine punishment, being challenged to a duel, a heartbroken and suicidal young man, a beautiful woman claiming to be Mrs. Holmes, a little boy who loves his dog, an old Scottish ghost that traditionally haunts husbands of pregnant women - there is very little they haven't seen (and solved). But, besides regular adventures, there are quite a few questions - Where was Holmes during the Great Hiatus?

The year 1894. The monstrous Hound of the Baskervilles has been dead for five years, along with its no less monstrous owner, the naturalist Jack Stapleton. Sir Henry Baskerville is living contentedly at Baskerville Hall with his new wife, Audrey, and their three-year-old son, Harry. Until, that is, Audrey’s lifeless body is found on the moors, drained of blood. It would appear some fiendish creature is once more at large on Dartmoor and has, like its predecessor, targeted the unfortunate Baskerville family.

Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson are summoned to Theobald Grange, the Warwickshire home of Lady Heminworth. Being of a nervous and superstitious disposition, her Ladyship lives in fear. Her husband and elder son were recently murdered, apparently by the ghost of a court jester who was executed on the site centuries before. The apparition has warned that she, too, is to die. Holmes rejects a supernatural explanation, although his adversary seems unaffected by gunfire and is able to take flight and disappear.

not bad but hate the pseudoscience from Watson

Summary
Spring 1937. While German Chancellor Adolf Hitler ceaselessly talks of peace, his actions seem deliberately calculated to make the Western allies lose patience. The schizophrenic geopolitical atmosphere even can be felt as far away as Fulworth, England, the home of the retired Sherlock Holmes, where the Steiners, a German migrant couple, have recently found a refuge and have assumed care of the detective's household after the passing of Mrs Hudson.
Spying and detective work are far from the thoughts of beekeeping enthusiast Holmes, but the suicide of his protEgE - a local youth whose natural talent the detective developed and encouraged for ten years - is a heavy blow. The death without apparent motive has now pulled Holmes back into the world, which has changed dramatically. Steam power has given way to electricity, carriages have been replaced by automobiles, and the skies are dotted with giant airships. The only thing that has remained constant is evil, in the shape of an enemy with whom Holmes first tangled more than forty years ago...

My own fault - I should have known better
I knew that trying to insert 80-something year old Holmes and Watson into a late 1930's Nazi Germany was stretching the bounds of believability and to maintain the spirit of the original stories was a big ask. Really, these two octogenarians end up doing some pretty unbelievable action/adventure stuff that I'm sure their bodies wouldn't be capable of. Yes, it is a bit too action/adventure for my liking and just not believable. I hate to leave a bad review but if inserting Holmes and Watson into every historic moment through to and beyond WWII is your thing, then go for it - you'll probably enjoy this story. The narration is good.

4.5 stars
Narrated by Kevin E. Green
Summary:
Sherlock Holmes geriatric version. Literally. The author has placed our intrepid detective and his faithful sidekick, Watson, well into their golden years.
Additional Comments:
- Written in classic Sherlock Holmes style with a few concessions for the venerable detective’s advanced years.
- If you like Sherlock Holmes, this could go either way. You could think “hey, it’s close enough. Cool.” Or you could think “this is a pale shadow of the classic story. No. Just no.” I guess I’m more a casual fan of the detective because I fall in the former camp.
- The death of a young man propels Watson and Holmes on a spy caper reminiscent of their old adventures but with a few less fistfights on their part.
- Performance: Very fitting. Has the classic feel to it.
Conclusion:
Like the bajillion Jane Austen knockoffs, this is a story homage that manages to tell a good tale.
*I got a free code for the book. I have freely chosen to review the book.

Fan Fiction For Sherlock Holmes
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle created a character named Sherlock Holmes that featured in several of his stories. Petr Macek has taken Sherlock Holmes and aged him by many years and then involved him in a new mystery. I enjoyed this tale that involved Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson and intermixed some of the more memorable phrases attributed to Sherlock Holmes by his original creator. Kevin E Green's narration is great creating a new voice for old characters. I was given a free copy of the audiobook and I have voluntarily left this review.

A Good Listen
This is one of the better Sherlock Holmes books that I have read/listened to. I am not talking about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, no one can surpass him and his writing. But I enjoyed this offering and the history the author employed in this story. Also Kevin E. Green did a fine job of narrating. I received this audiobook code for free in a promo, and I am voluntarily writing this. Thank you to the author, narrator or publisher who provided me this listen.
