Nine amazing novels featuring Inspectors Lestrade, Bradstreet, Gregson, and Hopkins, along with Our Heroes, Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson In 2008, Marcia Wilson began simultaneously writing a number of novels and short stories relating the stories of the Scotland Yard Inspectors who worked closely with Sherlock Holmes. Over the next few years, she completed a remarkably prodigious amount of work, revealing previously unknown and fascinating details about the lives of Inspectors Lestrade, Gregson, Bradstreet, and Hopkins, and their vastly interesting families and backgrounds. She wove this story into the escalating investigation of Professor James Moriarty - and along the way, she provided a different - yet still heroic and respectful - perspective of Our Heroes, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John H. Watson. This vast interrelated narrative appeared online, and a few pieces - just the very beginning of the much bigger picture - were published as books. Then. the online stories were taken down, and none of the additionally planned books in the series were published to share the rest of the story. until now. Finally, nine of the major novels in the "Sherlock Holmes and the Scotland Yarders" series by Marcia Wilson are being published in handsome uniform editions - the first of a planned series which will include other volumes in the future. Once these stories have been read, you will never see Lestrade, Gregson, Watson, Holmes, and the others the same way again. Truly, Marcia Wilson has found Scotland Yard's Tin Dispatch Box. BOOK VI: A Sword for Defense In mid-1891, Dr. Watson attempts to pick up the pieces of his life following the apparent death of Sherlock Holmes. But his peace is quickly shattered when Colonel James Moriarty, Watson's own personal foe from his time in India and Afghanistan, declares war on both Watson and the Scotland Yard inspectors who worked with Holmes - all in the name of restoring his dead brother's reputation, and also to protect a long-standing and truly vile scheme. And Watson can't reveal to Lestrade any of what happened all those years ago in the days leading up to the Battle of Maiwand. It's up to Lestrade and the Yarders, working with the hints Watson can share, to take up the investigation.
