A Conversation with Author Nicholas Meyer About Sherlock Holmes and the Telegram from Hell

For many of us, our first foray into the world of the art of detection came as we followed the footsteps of Sherlock Holmes. Reading the stories of the great detective's adventures with Dr. Watson may have been what turned some of us into life long lovers of mysteries-- both fiction and the real life variety. One of the best modern writers about Sherlock is Nicholas Meyer. His first novel about the great detective-- the Seven Per Cent Solution-- was published back in 1974 and related the until then unchronicled tale of how Sigmund Freud helped Holmes overcome his addiction to cocaine. It was later made into a film. Since then, Meyer has continued to periodically revisit Holmes, writing several more engaging tales about the detective.And now he is back with another Sherlock Holmes story-- though all of them have been wonderful, this new one is probably his best. Sherlock Holmes and the Telegram from Hell spells out the fascinating and heretofore untold story of a crucial secret mission Holmes and Watson undertook in the United States during the first world war-- at a time when America was not yet involved in the conflict. Buy Sherlock Holmes and the Telegram from Hell here and support your local bookstores: https://bookshop.org/p/books/sherlock-holmes-and-the-telegram-from-hell-nicholas-meyer/20678303?ean=9781613165331Support The Murder Sheet by buying a t-shirt here: https://www.murdersheetshop.com/Send tips to [email protected] Murder Sheet is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
