Overview

After the rooms at 221B Baker Street are set ablaze—and a mutilated corpse is discovered in the wreckage—Dr. John H. Watson is arrested and imprisoned at Coldbath Fields penitentiary. Writing from a cramped and dimly lit cell, Watson describes the mysterious events leading up to his arrest. Someone has been mailing him a series of cryptic warnings. His lifelong friend Sherlock Holmes has vanished in the raging waters of Reichenbach Falls. And Professor Moriarty’s criminal empire is expanding across Europe and throughout America.
 
In a desperate attempt to clear his good name, Watson has compiled twelve clues that may prove his innocence, including:
 
     •  The front page of a newspaper from Thousand Oaks, California
     •  A catalog of Victorian fashions and merchandise
     •  An empty matchbook containing cryptic handwritten notes
     •  The complete text of “The Final Problem,” Watson’s famous account of the death of Sherlock Holmes
     •  Plus a theater ticket, an arrest report, a railroad timetable, and more
 
All twelve clues have been painstakingly reproduced for this volume, along with the complete text of Watson’s manuscript and specially commissioned illustrations by Homes aficionado Clint Hansen. 

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
Sherlock Holmes is nowhere to be found. There is no question, however, about the whereabouts of his loyal colleague. Dr. John Watson is immured in the gloomy precincts of Coldbath Fields Penitentiary, having been wrongfully convicted of a brutal murder. With Holmes absent, only the reader can free the steadfast Watson. To facilitate that task, Watson has written a letter and gathered ephemera that could provide clues to the identity of the real culprit. This challenging interactive package for amateur detectives contains facsimiles of miscellaneous objects, including: a manuscript page torn into several pieces; a postcard with a cryptic message; a newspaper article; a catalog of Victorian medicines and marital aids; a strange ghostly image; a telegram; a train schedule; and much more.

    A puzzle wrapped in a book cover.

    I originally purchased this book just to add to my collection of hand made and/or oddly constructed books. It came with a bonus - I've really enjoyed reading it!
