Ever wondered what a pastiche would look like if someone tries to cram all Sherlock Holmes clichés, myths and characters into one story? Then you have come to the right place! This book includes - but is not limited to - such gems as [MINOR SPOILERS]: An exaggerated drug habit, Holmes murdering people for justice, Moriarty and Mycroft in league with each other, awkward and open conversations about sex (which feel kinda out of place in a novel set in victorian times by the way), Watson lying in his stories to hide the truth - and more! If that's your sort of thing, then you probably will enjoy this novel. Otherwise... well, you'll give it 2 stars. But only because somehow you kept on reading till the end - hoping for a plot-twist, which would reveal that this book is really a Sherlock Holmes parody rather than a 'Further Adventure'. Unfortunately the 'twist' is the lame thing you've seen coming from the beginning...
