In Sherlock Holmes’ Lost Adventure , a youthful Sherlock Holmes recuperates from an ordeal, destined to be chronicled by Dr. Watson as “A Study in Scarlet.” Holmes' next adventure, the lost adventure, starts mundanely enough with the theft of a typewriter but for one outré fact: the death of the beautiful supplicant's manservant. More thefts and purloined documents carry Holmes and Watson across Europe on the Orient Express in search of the truth. Holmes and Watson will face arch villain Lofcadio Hearseborne III and London’s greatest terror yet.
About the Author
Lauren Steinhauer is a born a storyteller, entertaining boyhood friends in grammar school with interactive adventures. As a young man in Hollywood, he performed magic—a form of storytelling—at the famous Magic Castle. Steinhauer has written four instruction books including Macromedia Director 6 for Dummies . Steinhauer resides in San Francisco, California.
“[Steinhauer has] produced a breathlessly exciting short novel that involves Holmes and Watson with an evil genius whose accomplishments dwarf those of ex-Professor Moriarty. Here you’ll find science gone mad. You’ll meet Charles Darwin, Gregor Mendel and a descendant of Charles Babbage (no, none of them is the villain). You’ll encounter a Victorian computer and the mysterious wisdom of an eastern cult of illuminati. And of course there are those giant rats — yes, rats in the plural. It’s a heady mixture, and it would make a grand movie, should the makers of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen be looking for another property. This is not really Conan Doyle’s Holmes, but it is jolly good fun.”
Roger Johnson, The District Messenger
