Meet Sherlock Holmes before he was famous!

Can Holmes and Watson solve the mystery of Mornington Crescent? Why are all the policemen whispering at Scotland Yard? Is the world prepared for the case of the Giant Rat of Sumatra? Read The Secret Notebook of Sherlock Holmes to find out...
"This book of short stories had me at the prologue... classic, dry Sherlocky wit" - Nicki Elson Blog
"A fun read... Holmes gets some great lines' - I Hear of Sherlock
"[A] little gem" - Pam Plumb, author of Akos Novus
