    Like the books but put off somewhat by the use of current tense!

    Really good story line. Can't wait for the third book to discover if Drake conquers his phobia which is getting worse

    3.0 out of 5 stars A GOOD READ FOR SHERLOCKIANS
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 30, 2019
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    ALTHOUGH I ENJOYED THE STORIES AS A SHERLOCKIAN THE SHORTNESS OF THE STORIES LIMITS THE
    COMPLEXITY OF THE CASES.
