Final Tales of Sherlock Holmes - Volume 1
￥58.76
Holmes and Watson are plunged into the secret underworld of 1925 London, where a serial killer of musical (gay) men is afoot. The killer has a little list, and Sherlock is on it. Why? And what have the Bloomsbury Group and the Diogenes Club got to do with anything? Thanks to Royal Jelly, Holmes is a fit 71-year-old, who has lost his interest in bees and returned to detecting. He's not quite as sharp as he used to be, but he's still pretty sharp, and a bit of a vigilante in his old age. He meets up with his colleague and friend, Dr. John Hamish Watson, a 72-year-old not-quite-so-fit-at-all twice-widower, who hankers after the good old days of derring-do. They are joined by their excitable new housekeeper at 221B Baker Street, the brilliant, buxom Miss Lily Hudson and are helped in their work by Jasper Lestrade of Scotland Yard, the ambitious, respectful son of the late George Lestrade.

Eye of Athina

The collapse of the Berlin wall in 1989 allowed the evil shadow of Eastern Mafia to spread across Europe, with the Greek islands proving to be a haven of obscurity for Russian and Romanian gangs. To counter the threat to British interests on the islands, MI6 establish the 'Greek Unit'. It's now 1994 and the Unit reacts quickly following the death of a British agent on the island of Petromos by sending a female agent, her cover - a tourist supposedly taking few days break from London. Born in Athens she bears the rare intense eyes that modern Athenian women associate with those of the goddess Athina. As the action unfolds she realises that a special bond with that mythical figure has existed all her life. A chance meeting with a man from her youth causes personal misgivings about her own future and when she finds friendship and love on the island, it conflicts with her dedication and loyalty to the 'Unit'; she questions her strange bond with Athina. Its strength will be tested in the days ahead. She uncovers drug and gun running activities organised by an unsavoury ex-London gang-boss hiding in unusual circumstances on Petromos. Then, amidst the politics of the small island-minded community, she finds herself the target of a Romanian hit man!
