"Somewhere in the vaults of the bank of Cox and Co., at Charing Cross, there is a travel-worn and battered tin dispatch-box with my name, John H. Watson, M.D., painted upon the lid. It is crammed with papers, nearly all of which are records of cases to illustrate the curious problems which Mr. Sherlock Holmes has at various times to examine."

The Sword of Death (2022)

The second Holmes adventure from Sherlockian Dan Andriacco.

A headless corpse, a houseful of high society suspects, a mysterious servant, and a woman in danger. Sherlock Holmes is on the case in one of his most baffling and bizarre adventures! 
The horrific sight that greeted us is one that I shall never forget. Seven swords hung by their handle guards. Two hooks for holding additional swords were empty, but one of them was not far away. Covered with drying blood, it lay on the bottom of the concealed space next to a severed head oozing gore. 
This follow-up to the critically acclaimed House of the Doomed presents another new mystery in the traditional style of Arthur Conan Doyle, as only Dan Andriacco can capture it!
