A Ghost From Christmas Past (The Art of Sherlock Holmes Book 13) Kindle Edition

by Tom Turley (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
In this story, readers will discover the solutions to several Sherlockian mysteries. Why are there so few cases from the middle 1880s? Why did such a ladies' man as John H. Watson wait so long to take himself a wife? What about those puzzling canonical references to a wife who can't be Mary Morstan? Travel with the Doctor to America, where you'll meet the beautiful young woman who preceded Mary, as well as Watson's “black sheep” brother Henry and characters who figure in such cases as “The Blue Carbuncle” and “The Five Orange Pips.” Here is a literally haunting tale that Publishers Weekly called a “standout.” This is the 13th story from The Art of Sherlock Holmes project and first appeared in The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories, Part VII. The artist was Nune Asatryan creating the art from the story. The original painting measures 18 x 24 and is an oil on canvas. You can view the original in The Art of Sherlock Holmes Virtual Gallery.

Thomas A. (Tom) Turley has been “hooked on Holmes” since about the age of twelve. He has a Ph.D. in British history but spent most of his career as an archivist with the State of Alabama. Approaching retirement, Tom returned to a youthful hobby: writing fiction. His pastiche “Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Tainted Canister” (2014) is available as an e-book and audiobook from MX Publishing. It was also published in The Art of Sherlock Holmes-USA Edition 1 (2019), illustrated by a painting from artist Angela Fegan. Previously, Tom has had stories published in Parts VI, VII, XVIII, XIX, and XXVII of The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories. One of them, “A Ghost from Christmas Past,” also appeared in The Art of Sherlock Holmes, West Palm Beach Edition (2019), paired with a painting by artist Nuné Asatryan. Tom’s new collection of historical pastiches, Sherlock Holmes and the Crowned Heads of Europe, was published by MX in 2021. It includes four interrelated stories that involve Holmes and Watson in the events that led to World War I. Tom lives with his wife Paula, along with two new dogs, in Montgomery, Alabama. Interested readers may contact him through MX Publishing or his Goodreads and Amazon author's pages.
