A fascinating storyline. Compelling that Holmes could speak beyond the grave and still solve riddles and mysteries.

A wonderful read!
This novel drew me in from the very first page and kept me hooked until the end. The characters were vibrant and relatable, the writing was engaging, and the story had just the right balance of heart and humor. Highly recommend!

Rate a 4.6 out of 5. I throughly enjoyed the book. I thought the idea of focusing on James Moriarty and his survival from the final encounter with Sherlock Homes was different. Seeing him take on the role as detective in helping try to solve the case for Clara and her family was interesting. In reading you weren't sure if Moriarty was going to be the villain still or if he had turned over a new leaf and was going to become a good man now. I thought I had figured out who had done it, but was pleasantly surprised by the ending. The only issue I had with the book and this could be formatting issues due to it not being release yet and reading it on my kindle, the font/typing at times had really large spacing gaps in it where there shouldn't be. There was also at times where the author's name was just randomly in the middle of the page with the page number in parentheses. I'm assuming this has to be formatting and it not being compatible with the kindle quite yet. If I had a physical copy to read at the start I don't believe that this would have been an issue.
