Book excerpt: Bringing Sherlock Holmes from the Victorian Era into the dark days of World War II, this imaginative new thriller confronts the world’s greatest detective with a killer emulating the murders of Jack the Ripper. London, 1942. A killer going by the name of “Crimson Jack” is stalking the wartime streets of London, murdering women on the exact dates of the infamous Jack the Ripper killings of 1888. Has the Ripper somehow returned from the grave? Is the self-styled Crimson Jack a descendant of the original Jack—or merely a madman obsessed with those notorious killings? In desperation Scotland Yard turn to Sherlock Holmes, the world's greatest detective. Surely he is the one man who can sift fact from legend to track down Crimson Jack before he completes his tally of death. As Holmes and the faithful Watson tread the blacked out streets of London, death waits just around the corner.

Book excerpt: From debut author Claire O’Dell comes a fresh, clever, and timely reimagination of Sherlock Holmes, featuring Watson and Holmes as you’ve never seen them before Dr. Janet Watson knows firsthand the horrifying cost of a divided nation. While she was treating broken soldiers on the battlefields of the New Civil War, a sniper’s bullet shattered her arm and ended her career. Honorably discharged and struggling with the semifunctional mechanical arm that replaced the limb she lost, she returns to the nation’s capital, a bleak, edgy city in the throes of a fraught presidential election. Homeless, jobless, and still heartbroken over a bad breakup with her girlfriend, Watson is uncertain of the future when she meets Sara Holmes, a mysterious yet playfully challenging covert agent who offers the doctor a place to stay. Watson’s readjustment to civilian life is complicated by the infuriating antics of her strange new roommate. But the tensions between them dissolve when Watson discovers that soldiers from the New Civil War have begun dying one by one—and that the deaths may be the tip of something far more dangerous, involving the pharmaceutical industry and even the looming election. Joining forces, Watson and Holmes embark on a thrilling investigation to solve the mystery—and secure justice for these fallen soldiers.
Book Synopsis Studies in Black, Emerald, Pink, and Midnight by : Maria Alberto
Download or read book Studies in Black, Emerald, Pink, and Midnight written by Maria Alberto and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sherlock Holmes has been called the "most prolific" character in literature (Redmond 232), and critics often seek to explain this status in terms of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original narratives. However, I argue that Holmes's ongoing popularity must be considered alongside that of John Watson, and that we can profitably do so by engaging with Henry Jenkins's idea of "convergence culture." As I examine four rescriptions of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson that build from Doyle's initial 1887 "Study in Scarlet," I observe the paradox that, although convergence culture might explode the implicit elitism of the original texts, it also reincodes an extra-narrative elitism. From the developments and receptions of four recent "Studies," each in a different media form, I then show how convergence culture increases insularity as it functions both alongside and against the rescriptive processes.
